freeBSD problem

[imtheroot]

Hello, I use mobaxterm to connect to my VPS with FreeBSD every time I change something in the files a window pops up saying "SSH transfer: Password for root@ip" Is there a way to turn this off? Thanks in advance!

FreeBSD 10.4 has been End-of-Life since October 2018 and is not supported any more. Upgrade as soon as possible.

Also don't login with root directly, there's a reason why this has been turned off by default.

You could use SSH keys.
First generate a key for the client, using ssh-keygen()
Then add the public key as string on the server in the home directory of the user you login with: ~/.ssh/authorized_key
A server restart is NOT necessary.

For the copying part there is a script that automates it: ssh-copy-id().
