    Sorry I forgot to mention. I tried that a lot of times, mostly after I tried something new, also cleared the cache a few times. All that did was asking for credentials once I clicked "OK" on the error at image 1.

      Did you try deleting on a empty report and tried to loggin with credentials?

       

      Once cleared it will ask to provide credentials again. 

      Revently I had the same issue, I did the same thing and it worked for me. It happened multiple times this week, even today.
