Built-in SSH
Recent versions of Windows 10 come with ssh by default, so PuTTY is not necessary.
Right-click the Start button or press Windows+X, then select Windows PowerShell
.
Type ssh username@example.ircnow.org
-- replace username with your real username, and replace example.ircnow.org with your shell account server.\
