Reset Credential information?

Is there a way to completely "forget" credential information with PBI Desktop?

I've got an issue with a SQL connection - I've been prompted for credentials when I first connected. I provided the wrong details, but I'm now not able to get the "credential window" to display again. 

I can't finish the connection as the account doesn't have any access (but its a admin-type account which looks like I can still "see" the database), there is no connections displayed under settings.

Quite frustrating to live with PBI and multiple accounts.

    This connection supposes to appear under "Global permissions" as well. You should be able to edit the credential there.
