Windows says credentials are not correct

Hi all!

I am following this tutorial at How to Geek: How to Share Files Between Windows and Linux

I started with Option 2 (Create a Share on Linux and Access It from Windows). I have done all the steps to install and setup Samba.
However, when I am in Windows, and enter my Linux IP address, then the Linux samba credentials, it tells me the credentials are not good.
I am entering the credentials that I initially setup in the step showing below.



What should I do?

Thanks
