All of TB's "world" is stored in its profile (a folder of data associated with the app). So clearing those passwords from TB using its Saved Logins settings should be sufficient. I can just knock out the file it keeps the passwords in the profile since I have other accounts with their own passwords.

I did try a different app password (and disabled the original) but I believe that didn't change anything. Besides the app passwords are tied to the application type. So I am not sure how that helps nor how using a different app password would cause TB to use the proper user name in its password table. But I'll try that again tomorrow since today was so hectic (also had problems with FM UI displaying in the browser too - took a while to get that back). Not a fun day.
