As noted in Depot Downloader's README, special characters need to be escaped when using the -password flag according to the shell being used. In theory, just wrapping it in double quotes as is done now should work, but it doesn't in practice. When my password had @, %, &, !, and $ in it, I could not log in. After removing all special characters, I could log in fine. BSLL v1.7.1, Windows 10 22H2

Have you tried inputting your password in quotations "like this"?

is there a reason why the code here can't automatically quote the text as needed? I would hope quoted text would always work? Does it not?

Just making sure if that's the case. If so, I'll make sure inputs are forced quoted next time I update the launcher.
