====== Filezilla not using password with SFTP connection? ======
Its trying to use SSH keys no matter if the password is explicitly chosen to connect.


Simplest workaround is to run filezilla from terminal like so:
  SSH_AUTH_SOCK=""; filezilla

Another is to rename .ssh folder to e.g. .ssh_backup so that it doesn't see the keys.

====== Tested on ======
  * Ubuntu 20.04.
  * Filezilla 3.46.3
