Thunderbird Now asking or Password each time.

Good morning.

I have been using Thinderbird portable for years with no issues, but I now have an issue I've never had before.

I have a BTinternet email address and it is now constantly asking or my password.

I have remember password ticked when I put the password in. When I go to passwords in it, the passwords stored for IMAP and SMTP are correct. I have removed the passwords, restarted and then reinput passwords as asked it to save. I have removed my account and reinstalled. I have deleted the entire program etc and reinstalled and still the same problem.

This doesn't happen when I use Outlook (So don't think it is my btinternet account).

Any Ideas greatly received.

Thanks
