title: how to stop SSRS prompting user name and password when deploying a report?
body: <p>I have a problem with deploying reports where i'm being asked to enter username and password and i don't know what is the username and password to use. i checked all similar questions on stack overflow before asking this question. i tried the WA in this MS article with no luck:
  <a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/security/configure-windows-authentication-on-the-report-server?redirectedfrom=MSDN&amp;view=sql-server-ver15" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/security/configure-windows-authentication-on-the-report-server?redirectedfrom=MSDN&amp;view=sql-server-ver15</a></p>
  <p>I tried also from configuration manager to run reporting server under windows account so i can use the account later when the dialog of username and password appears but the service fails to start. can someone please guide me step by step how can i resolve this problem?</p>
