Under Windows, @value{tramp} is integrated with the PuTTY package,

The details are easy to select, depending on your needs and the

The fastest transfer methods for large files rely on a remote file

Within these limitations, @value{tramp} is quite powerful. It is worth
noting that, as of the time of writing, it is far from a polished
end-user product. For a while yet you should expect to run into rough
edges and problems with the code now and then.
It is finished enough that the developers use it for day to day work but
the installation and setup can be a little difficult to master, as can
the terminology.
@value{tramp} is still under active development and any problems you encounter,
trivial or major, should be reported to the @value{tramp} developers.

When you are working with @samp{root} privileges, it might be useful
to get an indication in the buffer's modeline. The following code,
tested with @value{emacsname} 22.1, does the job. You should put it
