WinScp 5.7.6 can't use saved passwords

Hi, i have an issue with winscp, after version 5.5.2 i can no longer use stored passwords.

The password is stored in UI, but it does request the password to be entered on login anyway, sending you both log files so you can compare new version 5.7.6 vs 5.5.2. I attached log from version 5.8 but 5.7.6 works the same. Thanks.
