Sorry, but I believe you are mistaken. mklittlefs.exe is another repository.
This is the "arduino-esp8266littlefs-plugin" github.
It's the arduino-esp8266littlefs-plugin who needs to ask for the password. The ESP8266LittleFS.java file in this repository calls the espota.py without the -a argument.
Ah, you are correct. I do own both repos. However, the littlefs-java uploader is mostly a cut-n-paste version of the standard arduino 8266 one by me-no-dev:
I don't believe it gets a notice that the OTA has a password (most don't since OTA is insecure and will pass PWDs plaintext over the air). Not sure there's a way to know if a PWD has been set in the IDE. Will need a little study.
If you've got a suggestion, PRs are always appreciated. :)
cmbhjv and 877dev,
I have forked the repo and added a dialog box for the password. The downside is, that the box will open every time, no matter if a password is required or not. But you can leave the box empty to upload without a password.
Have fun!

That sounds good thank you. I’ll check that out and report back! 👍
@LeisureLadi@cmbhjv finally I got to test this (been away for a week).
It works!
Password box appears, enter OTA password, small delay, then Authenticating...OK and Uploading..... Takes a while to upload, and there is no Finished message. But is works.
@877dev
The missing 'Finished' message is related with the Python script. It is missing there. Having said this, it is also missing, when you OTA a sketch. I'm not sure if it can be added there. Feel free to investigate and let us know, what you find.

This is the mklittlefs.exe github, not related to OTA. I suggest you look at the esp8266 core for assistance.

I've been having the same issue here, ArduinonIDE does not prompt for a password when uploading LittleFS OTA.
A workaround is to flash a sketch with no password, upload LittleFS, then flash sketch with password.
