Starting PuTTY from WinSCP in the new version stopped working

I use SSH / SFTP with ppk keys, when I connect to the server I enter Passphrase into WinSCP. Connection normally passes, files are transferred.
Then, I launch PuTTY from WinSCP - and when starting it requires manually entering passphrase…
Although WinSCP settings specified to keep passphrase.
In the old version of WinSCP 5.13.4 - the launch of PuTTY works fine, passphrase is automatically transferred to PuTTY.
In the new versions, 5.13.5, 5.14.1.beta, you have to manually type the keys, which is very inconvenient.

putty ask for passphrase again

Hi,

i have installed WinSCP v5.13.6 today. But the Bug is still alive. When i start Putty (called from Winscp) i must enter the passphrase of the key again, even though i have entered it at the winscp login.

Putty is V0.70 and i have updated Wnscp 5.13.5 -> 5.13.6 and 2nd a complete fresh install of 5.13.6
I have accept "rember session password and pass it to PUTTY (SSH)"

Thanks for your report. Indeed. I have propagated the fix incorrectly to 5.13 branch. I'll fix it in the next release.
