SQL Developer - DBA user receiving ORA-01017 InvalidUsername/Password attempting to login

TheBigMMay 21 2018 — edited Aug 14 2018

I'm a DBA and my existing connections for me and for SYS are receiving "ORA-01017 InvalidUsername/Password" errors when attempting to connect to our 12cR1 databases.  I haven't needed to use SQL Developer for a couple of months and I am surprised at receiving the ORA-01017 error.

When I use SQLPlus at the Windows command line, I have no problems connecting SYS as SYSDBA, and using my DBA account as SYSDBA.

I've searched My Oracle Support and the community and I seem to be the only person in the world with this issue.

Can anyone provide me with clues as to investigate to fix this problem?

Thank you
