Admin password recovery

Hi,

due to bad weather/ lightning I had to reset my NAS in order to reinstall the firmware,

which was successfull and all my data is available. But when  I now try to connect to

the admin interface, the admin password is not recognized (yes - I am using the correct one).

 

Password recovery does not work either!

 

Does anyone have an idea how to set a new password?

      Hi StephenB,

       

      thanks Stephen, I found that one late last night after trying several others;-) I found online.

      Worked fine!
