Every day I had problem with Authentication window (it pop up and I should enter login password).

I close this window and try again later..... and it works.
Then I update ... commit.... 

and again Authentication window asking me for my login and password.

And this is happening on few quite different SVN repositories.

Any hint what is solution to this case ?

what kind of authentication are you using? Windows? Kerberos? ...?

the screenshots tell nothing about what kind of authentication you're using.
But just a few things:
  • still using http and not https?
  • drop the username in the url - that has been deprecated for years now and most browsers don't support it anymore. That could also be why you have to re-enter your credentials every day.

use the "relocate" command

With the tortoisesvn gui, you’ll find a  “relocate” in the sub menu, if you are in the root directory of your working copy.

This should do the trick.

I use 
https://hostingcanada.org/htpasswd-generator/
to change my password and now it is fixed

as to your sugestion about HTTPS we are nowe allready moved to HTTPS.

Thanks for your suggestion.

But when I do first update (after changing password) then I got this message:

It is very tricky, I still have the problem with authentification.
Today when I when I came to the office all was allright (My computer in TortoiseSVN remembered (since last use i.e. yesterday) the credentials for my SVN archive)
I had computer turned on all the day.
Several time I have to lock my computer, but I was all the time logged in.

I have accessed the SVN Archive via TortoiseSVN few times in the morning without any problems.

After a few hours, when I tried to connect, I was asked for a login and password again.
Why is this happening?
