## Passwords with special characters
If you want to use some special characters within your password, it could be that you need to escape some of these characters to not confuse the environment variable parsers.<br>
For example a `\` or `'` or `"` can be used, but sometimes they need to be escaped so that they actually used.
It is probably best, if you use special characters, to always uses single quotes around the password.<br>
Lets take the following password as an example: `~^",a.%\,'}b&@|/c!1(#}`<br>
Here are a few characters which could break the environment variable parses like, `\`, `'` and `"`.
A single `\` is normally used to escape other characters, so if you want to use a single `\`, you need to type `\\`.<br>
Also, the quotes `'` and `"` could cause some issues, so lets enclose this password within single quotes and escape the special characters.<br>
To have the password above to work we need to type `'~^",a.%\\,\'}b&@|/c!1(#}'`, here you see that we escaped both the `\` and the `'` characters and used single quotes to surround the whole password.
So: `~^",a.%\,'}b&@|/c!1(#}` becomes `'~^",a.%\\,\'}b&@|/c!1(#}'`
