Decoding Credentials

[Meatballs1]

Get the following error:

PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-MSSQLAllCredentials
Exception calling "Close" with "0" argument(s): "Padding is invalid and cannot be removed."
At line:33 char:33
+     {    if ($null -ne $Local:BROut) {$BROut.Close()};
+                                       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [], ParentContainsErrorRecordException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CryptographicException

Will see if I can follow manual steps but wont be able to share the value :)

The Get-MSSQLCredentials returns a value - but doesn't look to be properly decrypted (or could be machine generated). I guess the code paths differ at some point!

I tell a lie, it seems to have decrypted it fine, just a large base64 password that was clipped by the powershell output.
