Anyway, you can use /loglevel=0*- to disable password logging.
I've documented this: https://winscp.net/eng/docs/commandline#logging

In general, you should always isolate your script from the GUI configuration to avoid these kind of problems:

What do you mean by "view a site password"?

When you use WinSCP scripting you can keep it in %PASSWORD% and use it any where you want in your script.

For example, following script (example.txt):

open sftp://%USERNAME%:%PASSWORD%@example.com
...

can be called from this batch file (“configuration file”):

@echo off
set USERNAME=martin
set PASSWORD=mypassword
winscp.com /script=example.txt
