in Account

I set up a Teamviewer account via google and installed the TeamViewer Host software on my PC. When I try to sign into the Host software, it says "This acount has been created via a social media provider. Please sign in via the associated media provider." but it doesn't provide a way to do this. What am I missing? was creating the account using Google a mistake?

Thanks!

    I just know that all these **bleep** verification steps will be the downfall of teamviewer, so unnecessary changes have been made overall. Like nobody cares

    TeamViewer team, why are you hired some **bleep** to design you UI? Same problem

    To anyone else coming across this unanswered question, it seems the recommended solution for this problem is to delete your Teamviewer account and re-create it using an email address/password instead of "social media" authentication. It worked for me immediately, although it would **bleep** if you have a bunch of stuff saved in the account.
