SFTP connection error: "login or password is incorrect"

I googled for a solution to this problem and it looks that it is an old and known one.

Now, with the last Dreamweaver installed (19.1) I´m facing the same error:

"An FTP error occurred -- cannot make connection to host.  Your login or password is incorrect.  Please check your connection information."

With Filezila everything works fine.

Is it any solution for this error?

Are you entering exactly the same log-in credentials and root directory in both applications?

Have you tried More Options?  See screenshot.

Yes, I used the same login credentials (several times).

The connection is sftp so the options are differents than the picture

I have made the reg changes and it hasn't made any difference!
