Windows does not remember my passwords

I'd had an issue for months now, where many of my applications could not remember passwords. This included Outlook, Windows Live Mail, Google Notifier, Google Calender Sync and others,

Most of these apps would at least keep the passwords for the life of my login, but Outlook would prompt me each time I checked mail.

I googled for an answer and tried the Protected Storage System Fix (Method 3 in the link), to no avail, so I have been tolerating this for a few months now. What is odd, is that other acconuts in the same system do not suffer from this.

Today I searched again, as typically you put in a slightly different search and end up with different suggestions.

Thankfully, this one here helped me resolve the problem.

I'm posting this to increase the link count for that post, in the hopes that others find a working solution quicker than I did.
