Each time I start Outlook I have to enter the Exchange credentials for each account I have defined in the profile. Due to the fact the profile has 5 accounts it becomes a bit tiresome.
This Outlook is running on a LAN which is connected to the Exchange via VPN and it is on another subnet.
The Outlook running inside a Terminal Server session works fine and doesn't ask for the credentials even that profile has more accounts defined.
Of course, I check the option for save the credentials. I deleted already the profile and re-entered all accounts. When I was asked there to enter the credentials so I checked the option to save the data.
As long Outlook is open I am not asked anymore and everything works finr - so it is not similar to this question on ServerFault.
What can it be and how do I get rid of it?
- Exchange 2010
- SBS 2011 Standard
- Outlook 2013
This is the dialog I see each time I start Outlook. Some parts are in German.

Having met the same issue with you, then I took the suggestions in How to get rid of the password prompt every time you open Outlook it works.
However, there are a lot of causes for this issue. If you click cancel, do Outlook change to Disconnected, goes into Need Password state or remains Connected?
Similar issue for your reference https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/116fa7cd-82f8-447c-b3f1-db2cbf0c6b66/outlook-anywhere-prompts-for-password-in-outlook?forum=Exch2016SD

The answer from Beverly Gao put me in the right direction.
The problem was that I didn't add the domain to the username when I connected the first time to the Exchange Server. Therefore there was only one entry in the Credential Manager with the last username/password I entered.
This means, when I entered the credentials for USER1 Windows updated the entry for USER1. Then, due to the fact I have 5 accounts in the profile, I was asked for the password of USER2, USER3, USER4 and USER5. Each time I entered the credentials for one user Windows overwrote now the entry for the previously entered user - and so on.
The below screenshot shows what I mean. Before I started to add the domain there was only the last entry AAEB-SBS201WX... which is my Exchange. So, Outlook never had a chance to get the correct credentials for the 5 accounts because the Credential Manager had only one entry - for the last entered user/account.
Now, as you can see in the screenshot each account is saved with the domain and username and it works finally. You see in the screenshot the which is separating the domain and username.
I kept for the screenshot the last entry. Now it doesn't exist - only the entries with the DOMAINUserName format.
I was not aware of the need to provide the domain because inside the Windows Terminal Server it isn't needed. As I wrote, I am connecting via VPN to the SBS which is in another subnet.
