git-credential-winstore prompt does not work with self hosted repositories

git-credential-winstore works perfect with github and bitbucket repositories, but the prompt does not pop up while working with self hosted repositories. I can' t see what the problem is.

I' ve tried :

git config --global credential.helper winstore

via console

[credential]
    helper = winstore

in gitconfig and created and stored the credentials manualy. Without success. Can anyone point me to te right direction please? Im using Win7.

Best regards.

Update 2016:

Use the Git Credential for Windows: available here on Microsoft's GitHub organisation account

Install it and it just works, nothing to configure.

Use "wincred" in place of "winstore". It will work. It solved same problem for me.
