Connection to MySQL database failed

Hi dear community !

 

Few days ago i was unable to connect to my MySQL database (flush host problem) so a friend of mine solved it. Since this day, when I try to connect my power bi to my database I have this error message :

 

Details: "MySQL: Authentication to host 'ipadress' for user 'auth_windows' using method 'authentication_windows_client' failed with message: Access denied for user 'auth_windows'@'myipadress'"

 

It's always the same database, with the same ip adress. So I tried to create an other project but still the same problem (maybe it's the connector, i don't no).

 

Thank you for the time that you'll take to answer me !
