App Store Question: Pls help

[Jericho14]

I cannot update or download apps from the App Store, because the app keeps asking me for a
log in that uses the password I used a decade ago, and have long since changed. Even though I have created a new account, a window continues to pop up asking me for a PW for the decade old User ID.

Any app you buy or download is tied to the account used to buy or download it. You need the credentials of the account in order to update it. It's the same for the Mac App Store.
