Need to reconnect to SharePoint when Windows password is changed when refreshing power query

I have an Excel that uses input from other Excel files on SharePoint. This happens through PowerQuery. Every 2 months, We need to update our Windows password, this is a company policy.
Even though, I'm logged into Excel with my new password. I always need to re-enter my password again to refresh my PowerQuery. For other users it is a hurdle to use the file. The login makes the refresh much slower. I am talking up to 10 minutes.
Is there a way to prevent this?
