I have installed instantclient 12c x86 on Windows 8.1
I am able to connect from cmd.exe:
C:\Users\vagrant>sqlplus user@\"hostname:1521/SERVICE_NAME\"
SQL*Plus: Release 12.1.0.2.0 Production on Thu Dec 3 06:22:31 2015

Now when I try the same from Powershell:
I want to be prompted for password. It does not work.
PS C:\Users\vagrant> sqlplus user@\"hostname:1521/SERVICE_NAME\"
SQL*Plus: Release 12.1.0.2.0 Production on Thu Dec 3 06:30:12 2015

ERROR:

Enter user-name:
Here I provide my password and it works
PS C:\Users\vagrant>sqlplus user/password@hostname:1521/SERVICE_NAME

What is the correct syntax for being prompted for password logging in with sqlplus from Powershell?
