Go to Datasource in System Settings to try to submit the datasource profile again, the password will be encrypted.

Thanks for your response Walter , however I have tried the same but still the password is readable .PFB the contents of the database file (app_datasource-profile.properties) workflowDriver=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver workflowUrl=jdbc\:sqlserver\://hostname\\xyz;DatabaseName\=LSWCH;SelectMethod\=cursor;jwdb?characterEncoding\\\=UTF-8 workflowUser=sa workflowPassword=password

Hi, are you using the Community Edition? I believe this only works in the Enterprise Edition.
