Modified on: Mon, Feb 10 2025 2:23 PMUpdating your thenewsgroup password for mapped drive and SSMS connections
When your thenewsgroup password expires and a new one is given to you, you will need to update your saved passwords in Credential Manager so that your mapped drive and SSMS (SQL) connections will connect with the new password.
- Click on the Start button
- In the search bar, type Credential Manager and click on the Credential Manager app
- Click on the Windows Credentials tab
- Select the server connection you need to update and click Edit
- Remove the old password and enter the new password (you can copy and paste in the new password from the email you received) and then click Save.
- Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each saved server connection you need to update.
