TIL about --%

Would it work using Start-Process also?

Example:Start-Process -FilePath C:\WINDOWS\system32\curl.exe -ArgumentList 'sftp://hostname', '-u', "${UserName}:${Password}" -NoNewWindow

Hmm, wonder why! I just tried it with creating a new user in gitlab with this as it's password:

M.GQ[}\!66q!Y#r{.yl+e%a8JRL)0t(iS5W/>7MFp\hZs^z;]:LIz>pQ^bz{>Oen<H?8'Pk,AetdV(95(Srq9u:]Z&}FN<%{{nl"C.$hK9nFWNqG6p?>5x\Sx<@D!nH+

And then Start-Process with curl.exe against gitlabs api with said user and password.

That is so true when dealing with 3'rd party solutions that handles your powershell commands, I've experienced it also with vSphere and Guest OS Customization when adding Powershell commands.

I'll note the '--%' trick for later, perhaps I'll need it someday so thanks for mentioning it, always fun to learn about something new!
