Is it possible to connect to an SFTP server using WinSCP, without a key?

Hello,

I am using WinSCP version 4.2.5.
I am trying to connect to a server that is in the same network and domain as the server running WinSCP.
Actually, the target server is a GoAnywhere vault.
Our network administrator told me that connecting to the relevant GoA vault via SFTP does not require a key, but only a username and password.

But when I try to connect using just a username and password, I get the error "Couldn't agree a key exchange algorithm".
(Please see attached screenshots)

Is it possible to connect to my target GoA server using WinSCP, without specifying a key?
If so, how can I do it?

Regards,
Tsahi
