I do not have that credential on my Windows 10 machines.

Do you use POP3 Email?  If so, what are the incoming and outgoing server addresses?

You can back up credentials, delete the item and restore it if need be.

I started with Experts Exchange in 2004 and it's been a mainstay of my professional computing life since. It helped me launch a career as a programmer / Oracle data analyst
