@mike-england I have re-produced this issue locally on my setup using the password }sso\d$2!UsO.

@mike-england I have just used the password you mentioned successfully with escaping character.

for password }sso\d$2!UsO, following works fine.

password = "}sso\\d$2!UsO"

What about a password that uses , ", `, and ' at the same time? Not to challenge you, but it does seem to happen a bit around this office as our admin passwords get generated for us.

@mike-england Let's say the VC password is - Admin!23\'"

Here is how you need to escape characters.
