How do you setup authentication with the GitHub client?

I am new to GitHub and have been in the process of uploading old projects to it.

Unfortunately, I have started to encounter this error whenever I want to publish more projects. 

Requires authentication

This error persists even on my laptop.

If someone could help me out, that would be great.

Make sure you have followed first the Authenticating to GitHub guide: the client "GitHub Desktop" needs to know under which account it will create/push that new repository.

If it does not, then the error message would pop up.
