If pattern ''!@'' is not used, parameter ''-load <site>'' is automatically added to the command. If pattern ''!@'' is not used, parameter ''-load <site>'' is automatically added to the command.
-If pattern ''!P'' is not used, and password is known, parameter ''-pw <password>'' is automatically added to the command.+If pattern ''!P'' is not used, a ==password== is known, and you are using an up-to-date version of PuTTY,((The executable name is ''putty.exe'' and its version is 0.77 or higher.)) the password is passed using named pipe and [[&url(puttydoc)/Chapter3.html#using-cmdline-pw|''-pwfile'' switch]]. Otherwise insecure [[&url(puttydoc)/Chapter3.html#using-cmdline-pw|''-pw <password>'']] parameter is used.((It is passed as the first argument of the executable, before any custom arguments.))

However better approach would be to use [[public_key|public key authentication]] together with [[ui_pageant|Pageant]]. The option is disabled, when the ''!P'' pattern is used in the [[#client_path|terminal client path]] box, as it implies that the password is remembered.+Check //Remember session password and pass it to PuTTY// checkbox to make WinSCP [[security_credentials#password_memory|keep session password in memory]] and [[#password|pass it to PuTTY]] when using //[[integration_putty#open_putty|Open in PuTTY]]// function.

By default WinSCP instructs PuTTY to open Telnet session if you are using [[FTP]]. Uncheck the //Open Telnet sessions in PuTTY for %%FTP%% sessions// to use [[SSH]] instead.((However note that if the server supports SSH protocol, it most probably supports [[SFTP]] also. You should always use SFTP, instead of FTP, if possible.)) By default WinSCP instructs PuTTY to open Telnet session if you are using [[FTP]].
