I want Thunderbird to forget my password for my Gmail account. I believe that a setting to remember the password lies outside Thunderbird because it persists in logging me in automatically even after I have removed and re-installed the Gmail account in Thunderbird.

I have pursued the following steps with no success:

First in Thunderbird, I went to Tools/Options/Security/Saved Passwords and removed all passwords.

In Firefox, I went to Tools/Options/Security, and under Passwords, Saved Passwords was not clicked.

In Chrome, I went to Settings/Clear Browser Data and observed that passwords was not checked. Also in Chrome, I went to Settings/Advanced Settings where Offer to Save Web Passwords was not checked. There were no saved passwords under Manage Passwords.

I don't know what version of Chrome I am running. I could not find a tab with that information in Chrome. Maybe someone can tell me how to find out the version. Otherwise, I am running Thunderbird 38.3.0 and Firefox 42.0 on a Dell laptop with Windows 10.

I welcome a solution from some smart Gmail user, Thanks

Never mind Firefox, Chrome etc. They don't remember passwords for Thunderbird.

Deleting the stored passwords in Thunderbird - "First in Thunderbird, I went to Tools/Options/Security/Saved Passwords and removed all passwords" - should have done the trick. I guess from all your thrashing about that it hasn't?

I have noticed that Oath for Gmail is enabled in Thunderbird. I am not prompted for my password for my Gmail account in Thunderbird. When I remove all passwords in my security settings in Thunderbird, the password dialogue bypasses Thunderbird to the Gmail password prompt. A password with 67 characters is then added to the security settings in Thunderbird for my Gmail account.

Gmail voice is part of my automatic Windows startup procedure every time I boot up my computer.

Please tell me how to disable this Oauth process so that I can log into my Gmail account in Thunderbird with the usual Thunderbird prompt each time that I start Thunderbird. Thanks, spruce 18b

First you need a gmail account that is more that a couple of years old (the exact transition date is not know.) Then you enable less secure apps on Gmails site and disable and two factor authentication.

Then you change the authentication method in your Account settings in Thunderbird to normal password.

That should work for a while, but Google are determined to make all mail client use oauth2.0 to authenticate in the future.

Alternatively dispose of your voice authentication.
