Visual Studio Online alternate credentials not available - azure-devops

I am trying to hook up Atlassian Source Tree to my GIT repository on Visual Studio Online. To do so, you have to enable alternate credentials. However, when I go to the screen for alternate credentials it has a warning message that says "Alternate Credentials have been disabled for your account."
I can click the "enable alternate credentials" and put in a password but the error message is still there at the top of the form and Source Tree doesn't work.
How do I enable credentials?

There is a setting that controls it for the account. Are you the account owner?
If so, from your account home page, click the gear icon in the upper right. Then click on the Settings tab. Check under Application Connections and enable alternate authentication credentials.

Unable to publish a app to google marketplace

I have created a google cloud console project and enabled "Google Workspace Marketplaces SDK along with other APIs.I have created an OAuth client for the service account and an OAuth client for a web application.
I have configured "Google workspace Marketplace SDK" under tab "App configuration without any error. When I am trying to save "store listing" after filling in the detail, it shows an error without any hint. I am unable to figure out what went wrong.
It seems that there might be a bug on the console interface, you can report it on https://developers.google.com/workspace/marketplace/support#bugs
I've heard that some users have reported to solve it with a workaround.
If you just check "All Regions" it won't let you continue. Even though it hides the region selector, you have to first select at least one region and then check the "All Regions" box."​
If that doesn't work, it's better to report it.

Integrated Windows authentication in Microsoft Edge

I am trying to implement Integrated Windows authentication on Edge, but it always prompts me for credentials, whereas Integrated Windows authentication is working for IE, Chrome and Firefox. I have tried adding the site to local intranet sites in security options and enabled automatic login but no luck on edge browser.
Does Edge support Integrated Windows authentication?
I have tried adding the site to local intranet sites in security options and enabled automatic login as well login with current username and password.
Which version of Microsoft Edge version are you using?
Please check the following configuration to Enable Integrated Windows Authentication:
Open Internet Explorer and select "Tools" dropdown.
Select the "Advanced" tab.
Scroll down to the "Security" section until you see "Enable Integrated Windows Authentication". Select the box next to this field to enable.
Select the "Security" tab.
Select "Local Intranet" and select the "Custom Level" or "Advanced" button.
Scroll down to "User Authentication" > "Logon".
Checked the "Automatic logon with current user name and password" option.
In the "Security" tab, select "Local Intranet" option and click the "Sites" button.
Click the "Advanced" button, then, add your website to the zone.
Close the window and apply the configuration.
If still not working, I suggest you could feedback your issue to Microsoft Edge platform forum, like this thread.
It may be because of AuthServerAllowlist. You can check your policies at edge://policy/.
Specifies which servers to enable for integrated authentication.
Integrated authentication is only enabled when Microsoft Edge receives
an authentication challenge from a proxy or from a server in this
list.
[...]
If you don't configure this policy, Microsoft Edge tries to detect if
a server is on the intranet - only then will it respond to IWA
requests. If the server is on the internet, IWA requests from it are
ignored by Microsoft Edge.
As the documentation states; if your server/site isn't included in the AuthServerAllowlist and Edge can't identify your site as an intranet site Edge won't use Integrated Windows Authentication.
Enabling Integrated Windows Authentication
Use the following procedure to enable silent authentication on each computer.
Open the Windows Settings and search Internet Options.
The following window opens.
Click Local intranet > Sites.
Click Advanced.
Enter the tenant specific URL into the Websites text box.
Click Close.
As far as I can tell and from what I have read, Edge does not support Integrated Windows authentication; at least as of version 42.17134.1098.0.

How to create a Trust Prompt for my Exel Add-In installer

I created a VSTO Excel Add-in ribbon. That I published to setup.exe. But when the end user tries to install it, it fails with this error:
Customized functionality in this application will not work because the
certificate used to sign the deployment manifests for [Add-In] or its
location is not trusted. Contact your administrator for further
assistance.
I can install the Add-In by doing the following.
Unzip and right click on “setup.exe” and select properties
Click on Digital Signatures tab
Select [issuer] from the Signature list and click the Details button
When the Digital Signature Details dialogue appears, click View Certificate
When the Certificate dialogue appears, click on Install Certificate
The Certificate Import Wizard window should appear. Choose the following:
a. Store Location: Current User, click the Next button.
b. Certificate Store: Place all certificates in the following store, Click Browse, select Trusted Root Certification Authorities, click the Next button.
c. Click the Finish button.
d. A security Warning should appear asking “… Do you want to install this certificate?” Click Yes.
e. Click OK. On the “The import was successful.” Dialogue.
Click OK to exit the Certificate dialogue
Click OK to exit the Digital Signature Details dialogue.
Click OK to exit the setup Properties dialogue.
then I run the setup and all works. The problem is we must send this setup file to many users. and NO ONE will want to do that. I've been messing around with the solution properties -> Signing -> Sign the ClickOnce manifests, but I can’t seem to bring up the Trust Prompt on anything I alter. I don’t have a paid for certificate, I just need the prompt to appear for the user to choose to trust it. I haven’t found an answer online on how to allow this prompt to appear. Any help is greatly appreciated.
You can deploy your VSTO to the Program Files directory. Your add-in will be considered as being safe since admin rights are required to install in this directory. I believe it is the simplest way.
Granting Trust when using Windows Installer You can use Windows Installer to create an MSI file to install Office solutions into the
Program Files directory, which requires administrator rights. For
Office solutions in the Program Files directory, the Visual Studio
2010 Tools for Office Runtime considers these Office solutions to be
trusted and does not show the ClickOnce trust prompt.

If you give it a second thought, this feature (certificate signing) is designed to specifically disable your scenario. Means, it is built to prevent users from installing non-signed add-ins downloaded from the internet.
I think, if you have so many users which are not in your organisation (so that "correct" certificate cannot be installed centrally), the only reasonable way to overcome this is to buy a certificate from some authority (to pass organization or identity validation). It's not really expensive, and will ensure your users that the thing they are installing is really coming from you.

Setting Auto Proxy in Force.com IDE behind VPN

I work remotely, so I always have to connect to COrporate VPN.
I'm having issues with proxy setting that are needed for Force.com IDE.
I was able to access Salesforce.com both sandboxes and production from IE, Chrome or firefox, but not able to connect using force.com IDE/Eclipse.
I tried to check for proxy settings in Internet Options, but all I can see is "Automatically Detect Settings" is selected and nothing else.
I tried calling my company helpdesk and they are asking me to call either Salesforce/Eclipse teams to find what is wrong with it. :)
So not sure how to get proxy host and port details.
Go to “Window –> Preferences”
Preferences box prompt out, choose “Network Connections”
Select “Manual” from Action Provider drop down list
Select Http in the List and click “Edit” button
Fill in the proxy server host and port number, (fill in the username and
password if any)
Ok, Done.
