If a user checks Remember my Password in the Connect to Report Server dialog box when logging into Report Builder, is there a way to clear out those credentials? We are launching Report Builder 3.0 from SSRS using ClickOnce, and we have a security concern. Since RB credentials are stored per windows user, if someone saves credentials, another person could log into SSRS in the browser, launch Report Builder, and be logged in using the saved credentials as the other user. I'd like to know how to clear the credentials if they are saved. I've tried deleting the local app cache (C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0), but that doesn't work. It causes ClickOnce to reinstall Report Builder, but the credentials are still saved. Thanks for any help. Bob

Hi Bob, Actually, you could give some users special permission role except opening the report via report builder, then these users could not open the report via report builder.

I am not sure I understand your suggestion. Are you suggesting that we do not grant the "Report Builder" role in Reporting Services to hide the Report Builder button, to prevent users from being able to launch Report Builder? That doesn't solve the problem, but it would limit the number of people who might encounter the issue. As I've dug into the issue, I am less worried about the risk, but it is still a risk. For example, say user "Joe" saves his credentials in Report Builder on his computer, then user "Jane" accesses Joe's computer on his Windows login. If she logs into Reporting Services using her own credentials and launches Report Builder, she will not be promtped to enter her credentials and she will automatically be logged into Report Builder as Joe. That means Jane will be able to run and manage reports as Joe, with his data access. Your suggestion to limit the use of the "Report Builder" role in Reporting Services doesn't solve this issue. Granted, if our users have the situation where they are sharing Windows logins, or Joe's computer is left logged in and unattended, then they have bigger security issues. Right now I am most interested in finding out how to clear the cached credentials. I am trying to find out now how to clear the user cache, so that when this happens, we can delete the saved credentials. Thanks, Bob

Hi, I have the same issue but for a different reason. We have a security model in place so that different logins only get to see "their" data even though they use the same datasource. We use basic authentication and users are prompted to enter username and password. As an administrator, I need to be able to test that multiple logins are working. Unfortunately, I selected the "remember password" and now I no longer get the login prompt and cannot change logins. Does someone know how to clear this information? I tried uninstalling/reinstalling Report Builder but it still remembers.(proving that it has an elephantine memory!) Thanks, Dean.

I found the solution here http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sqlreportingservices/thread/b54b767d-70fd-42c5-995b-87a94c7e796d You have to click the 'Clear all recent item lists' button on the options page in Report Builder. You may have to close/restart RG to get the effects to kick in.

I finally found the solution here http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sqlreportingservices/thread/b54b767d-70fd-42c5-995b-87a94c7e796d It works for Report Builder 3 as well as v2. You just have to click the 'Clear all recent item lists' button on the options page in Report Builder. You may have to close/restart Report Builder to get the effects to kick in.
