Did you follow the txt?  If so login with admin go to Dashboard-Users, select the admin then Password tab.

HI, you don't create any txt file, you open the one that it already has created for you.

thought i knew how this worked, did it a few years ago, but I guess not.  Don't remember admin password but if i pull emby up in browser i'm logged in as admin. Where do I go from there?

Have you went to Dashboard-Users, select the user, Passwords tab?

Have you tried just applying a new password?

If that does not work you need to log out click forgot password, then follow the txt instructions then reapply a password.

otherwise you would have to modify the user database.

Yes it was removed from Admin awhile ago so Remove password is only visible on user accounts now so admins can reset them.
