What TB version do you have? Anyway, for TB v78 you might delete all saved passwords - Options - Privacy & Security -> Passwords and also check/ativate the check-box for "accept cookies", restart TB and try again... for TB <78 you might use SSL/TSL instead of OAuth2

my tb version is 68,I will try it ,thank you

When I update to v68.12.0,this problem is re solve .thank's everyone.
