Hi, I was searching for a way to restart a session when my pc enters sleep mode. ALT+SPACE+R. But you have to enable "System menu appears with ALT-SPACE" in Window-Behavior inside Putty configuration. This will permit new session with the combination + W. Found on https://rtomaszewski.blogspot.com/2013/05/putty-shortcut-and-tricks.html blog and I believe this deserve to be shared and millions of thanks for him that shared first.

These are not putty shortcuts, these are bash shell shortcuts.
Example of putty shortcut would be create new window with same session or reset current session.
Nevertheless pretty useful for power user.
Thanks
