How to do an OS reinstall reboot on readynas 204 v6xx

Hi all,
Apologies if I'm asking dumb questions! So far for the most part, I'm very happy with my readynas204. I need to do an update to the plex media server but forgot my username and password, and my recovery isn't working. I read somewhere that I can do an OS reinstall reboot without affectingday data. I just need to know how as I couldn't find any instructions.

Thanks in advance,
Atik

This is also in your NAS hardware manual.  You'll find your NAS documentation here: https://www.netgear.com/support/product/RN204.aspx#docs

Thank you very much! I tried that page before but I couldn't find the right documents - maybe as I was using mobile. All done now, much appreciated!
