Hi.

After installing the latest beta, all my 2024 and 2025 workbenches have lost all access to our shared server and database connections.

How can I restore the access without compromising everything. Will a regenerate work ?

The access still works in versions 2020 and 2022.

Cheers.

Ah, my bad.

The reason why I couldn’t remember or find the password, was that it was left blank.

The beta created its own connection database by default, and when I redirected it to the shared one, it prompted for a password, which it then saved irredeemably for both 2024 and 2025.

All’s well now, and I’ve made a mental note to myself about not fiddling with the password entry in the future ;-)
