Hi, I've just installed Heidisql onto a new Windows 11 machine (v12.11.0.7077) but I can't make an SSH connection to my DB because the option is greyed out (screenshot attached).

plink.exe is definitely installed in the HeidiSQL folder.

Any ideas what the issue could be? Many thanks!

You just need to switch to the SSH enabled network type:
