Are you sure the saved password has the same hostname/ip etc? (eg.
127.0.0.1 vs. 192.168.1.57 or whatever your primary interface uses).
FYI, the saved password is used when I test here - I don't get a
password prompt.

Well, you could associate the file type with a script which launches
pgAdmin with '-qc <connect string> -f $1' (modified appropriately for
whatever operating system you use).
