The other post is now locked, but today I had the chance to update to 2457. Sierra4.config is still showing my account number as well as my email / phone number (for alerts) in plain text. The email and phone number go away if I remove them from General > Alert Settings Tab > Notification.

I've closed and restarted sierra a number of times and used saved all, but my account number continues to be available in plain text.

I was able to login or connect using a sub-instance and that one does not contain my account number.

How are you determining this?:
but my account number continues to be available in plain text.

Yes this is true:

The email and phone number go away if I remove them from General > Alert Settings Tab > Notification.

1. Open sierrachart
2. Connect to data feed
3. Save All & Exit
4. Open Sierra4.config in notepad
5. ctrl + f to search
6. search for my account number

I've repeated those steps 3-4 times now and everytime in my main instance the account number is visible. My sub-instances have updated and the account number does not appear when I search for it.

This could be from the Trade Activity Log. If you go to the Trade >> Trade Activity Log is your account number selected on that window?
