    Hello,

    I ran into this issue too. Windows was using stored credentials that were for some reason overriding the password that was entered when trying to connect.

    Had to right click on the Remote App and select edit. There's an option to edit or delete the credentials being used to connect. I updated the password and saved it then was able to log in without issue.
