  • in French, it is called: Gestionnaire d'identification
  • in Polish, it is called: Menedżer poświadczeń
  • in Portuguese, it is called: Gerenciador de Credenciais
  • in Russian, it is called: Диспетчер учётных данных
  • in Spanish, it is called: Administrador de credenciales
  

• Go to Windows Credentials

• Delete the entries under Generic Credentials

  

  
  

• Try connecting again. This time, it should prompt you for the correct username and password.
