2021-05-03T22:37:37.797+00:00 there is only 1 server in play here and its on a WORKGROUP.
So i have no idea what credentials it is looking for.
i tried adding the site to local intranet and trusted sites but it was already listed in that location. -

2021-05-04T08:20:20.387+00:00 @dirkdigs Will you also be asked to enter your username/password when you run the application locally? you can try the username/password of your machine.

the program is installed on this workgroup server
i have changed the administrator password and logged out , then logged back in .
it still asks me for credentials. i put in the known good credentials but it does not work .
