Reset Password - sub3/NextPVR GitHub Wiki

If for some reason your forget your password, and can't get back into your NextPVR system, it's relatively straight forward to reset your username/password to the default. To do this, you need to edit the config.xml to set:

<Username>admin</Username>
<Password>5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99</Password>

These settings are found in the WebServer section of config.xml.

This will reset your username to 'admin' and the password to 'password'.

On Windows, the config.xml file can be found in C:\Users\Public\NPVR-data\config.xml

On Linux, installed with the .deb file, the config.xml can be found in /var/opt/nextpvr. On manual linux installs, config.xml is usually found in ~/.NPVR-data.
