Changing network credentials

Thread needs solution

True Image 2015, Build 6525, Windows 7 Pro SP1.

I am backing up to a network share. When I was creating the backup, choosing the server share as destination, I entered the Administrator account and password. I would like to change that to an account I created specifically for this purpose.

I cannot find how to change these credentials anywhere.

I deleted the back and created a new one, hoping it would ask me again, but it seems to have remembered the Administrator and password.

Any ideas?

I had the same problem. Even uninstalling and reinstalling does not help.

The reason is:

the login credentials are saved in the registry and are not removed
just delete the connections inside the smb folder or ftp if you are using ftp.
HKEY_USERS\S-**your sid**\SOFTWARE\Acronis\Connections\smb

if you don't know your sid, you can get it by using this command in the powershell or cmd:
whoami /user

result will look like this
User Name SID
========================= ============================================
**my name** S-0-0-00-000000000-000000000-0000000000000-0000

Hope this helps.
