winscp does not start from commandline

If I start winscp3.exe (Version 3.8.2) in the following way:
winscp3.exe user:password@10.10.10.10
and the password contains a % then WinSCP does not start.

Re: winscp does not start from commandline

Hey
There are more and more characters which can not used in commandline in the field password.
Why can I not use % or + in field password is this a problem with programming?
Can you create a version we can use all characters?
Thanks

The reason is that WinSCP treats the command line parameter as an URL address. So characters that need to be escaped in an URL needs to be escaped in command-line.
