Hello,

Thanks for sending over the error your getting along with the steps you’ve taken. We would like you to attempt one more try at the following:

  • Close Sourcetree
  • Remove your password file from the following directory:
    • Windows: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Atlassian\SourceTree
    • MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/SourceTree
  • Open Sourcetree and attempt authenticating again.

Please let us know the outcome.

Regards,
