Git Extensions stored wrong credentials [duplicate]


GitExtensions doesn't store any passwords.

They are stored by git or, more exactly, by "git credential manager" that stores them inside windows.

Search for Credential manager* in the start menu and you should find it. Otherwise, it should be in: Control panel => User => Credential manager

Then select the tab Windows credential and you will see keys named like git:xxxx.
