SFTP not working in Windows 7 installation of VS code

There are no meaningful errors even when debug=1 is set

I get no error in the logs at all with debug=1, and it's obviously not connecting.

PS : I am on mac, VS Code 1.38.1

EDIT : Got it to work thanx to @glauber-experian 's message, the doc doesn't say that the password needs to be encoded for sftp (they don't need to be for WebDav for example, which is what I was using the extension for initially).
