We were using ansible 2.5 running on Ubuntu 18.04.  I was able to upgrade to ansible 2.10 and run linux based playbooks.  When I try to run playbooks for my Windows hosts I get the following error:

Invalid type for configuration option plugin_type: connection plugin: winrm setting: remote_password : Invalid type provided for "string": 321321'

Can someone help me?  I kinda new to ansible.

Do you know what version of python you are using?  Quick search seems to point out that people switching to python3 may have had better results.

Here is where I found it:

Hope this helps

HI JP

We are using Python2.7.  I'll try switching to Python3 and see how that goes.  
Thank you for your help.
