And a thorough description of the problem / question:
I am trying to configure SonarLint in Connected mode. I’ve been able to connect to the SonarQube Server but when binding to a project, getting the below error. I am using Azure Virtual Desktop, accessing using Remote Desktop client. A previous post suggested that it might be because of Remote Desktop but that’ not true as some of my colleagues are able to bind the project successfully. On my machine, I can’t see anything in Credential Manager but my colleagues who were able to bind successfully, have a new record created under Windows Credentials → Generic Credentials with username SonarLint.VisualStudio.Integration:

I tried adding a credential record manually but still getting the same error in visual studio. Please advise as I’ve already wasted too much time investigating this.

Updating binding…

Hi Nitin,

Welcome to the community. To make sure the you have the right permission could you please ensure that “Local Security Policy → Local Policies → Security Options → Network access: Do not allow storage of passwords and credentials for network authentication” is set to disabled

Hi Ugras, thanks for your reply. I just checked and the “Network access: Do not allow storage of passwords and credentials for network authentication” setting is set to disabled (screenshot below).

Hi,
This issue can happen also if you run the VS in impersonation. Can you please check that you are not running it in impersonation?
