If you are using password authentication, you can enter your password directly on [[ui_login#session_settings|Login dialog]]. Otherwise, WinSCP will prompt you once a server asks for it. You will be prompted again if you enter invalid password. Also note that most of the servers will "prompt" for a password when you use invalid username, not to allow an attacker to learn if the particular account exists. | If you are using password authentication, you can enter your password directly on [[ui_login#session_settings|Login dialog]].
