Re: Changing Window Title in Putty

["John L. Ries" <jries@salford-systems.com>]

I may be misunderstanding you but:

1.  Load the session configuration.
2.  Select Terminal/Features.  Check "Disable remote-controlled window 
title changing".
3.  Select Window/Behavior.  Fill in the Window title as seems good to 
you.
4.  Go back to Session.  Click on the Save button.
