 Hi @aditibluepineapple,

 Were you ever using Basic Auth on that site? For instance a staging site
 protection? Your browser may have cached the Basic Auth credentials and is
 still sending them even though it is no longer necessary.

 If you open your browser's developer console, and navigate to the
 "Network" tab and select the "Document" type. Then after refreshing the
 page, you should see an entry there to `yourdomain.com/wp-
 admin/profile.php`. Do you see an Authorization header listed in the
 request section?

 Can you also navigate to Site Health, do you see a test in the "Passed
 Tests" section that says "The Authorization header is working as
 expected."?
