Dear All,

I am new at PgAdmin4 (version 6.16).

So I was able to make a functional backup of my database which is protected by a strong password since that database is accessible over the internet.
When I tried to restore the database I got this error (see below). I looked if I could fill-in the password somewhere but was not able to find a place to do so.

It seems that PgAdmin4 tries to do the restore with the -no-password option. This is bound to fail and as you can see it does fail.

What did I overlook to make this restore work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,
Serge De Maseneer.

PS. This version of PgAdmin4 is the Windows version (Windows Professional 11)
