Same issue. How do you even edit a vdb4 file?

In the next version, we will include password reset feature.
In the meantime, we can help you if you send your vdb4 file.

Some sort of password reset functionality would be VERY useful.  Currently our only admin account is locked out due to too many failed login attempts

FYI, we have just released v4.1 which has the following feature:

- Added: New RecoveryMode setting to filevista.config for resetting administrator password. When set to 1, user will be able to login by just entering the administrator name only.
Then user will be prompted to change/reset his password. The setting will be set back to 0 automatically for security purposes after login.
