&lt;p&gt;I forgot the Administrator credentials for my local Soft PLC (CODESYS Control Win V3x64) running on CODESYS V3.5 SP22 Patch 2 (Windows 11).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I try to login/connect to the device, it asks for the Device User Management username and password.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I checked the CODESYSControl.cfg file, which points the working directory to:&lt;br/&gt;
Windows.WorkingDirectory=%APPDATA%\CODESYS\CODESYSControlWinV3x64\905D4E32&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, I cannot locate the actual database/credentials files in AppData or ProgramData to clear them, and resetting the runtime directory doesn't seem to clear the authentication prompt.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Could anyone please advise the correct steps to completely reset or wipe the User Management credentials for the Control Win V3.5 SP22 runtime?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you in advance!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary></entry></feed>
