How to pass a password with special characters to Windows?

[zsh@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I have:

1. An Apple silicon machine running Sequoia 15.2, with zsh 5.9 
(arm64-apple-darwin24.0).

2. A Windows 10 machine with an NTFS internal drive that I want to mount 
to the Mac.

3. A password on the Windows machine that cannot be changed, and 
contains three special characters.  The password, with the letters and 
numbers obfuscated is: ****^*******%)    (all * are either numbers or 
letters).

This command works to mount the drive, but prompts for the password:
mount -t smbfs //username@10.0.0.23/D /Users/Shared/Windows-D\

How can I pass the password with the mount command in a format that 
Windows can read?  The password can be passed either through Keychain or 
in plain text in the command; but I don't know how to do either 
successfully.

I have "A User's Guide to the Z-Shell" available, but it was a bit 
overwhelming for me.



Thanks,
