[windows] How to reset the use/password of jenkins on windows?

Maybe a fool question, I installed jenkins on windows by default, have set no user/password, it worked at first, no need to login. But when launch the 8080 webpage now, it hangs the login page, I've tried some normal user/password combinations, none could pass. Also searched the resolution on website, only find some about linux, no about windows, so need help. jenkins login page

I had the same problem, no possible connection at second login.

After solving the problem (useSecurity, etc., see above), I realized that admin/admin worked (with Synology, it that's relevant).

I created a new user with "admin" and new password on the installation steps. But after sometime, i wanted to sign in again and that password was showing incorrect, so i used the initial password again to login.

The initial password can be found in the below location:-

C:\Program Files(x86)\Jenkins\secrets\initialAdminPassword

try this method

1 ) Copy the initialAdminPassword in Specified path.

2 ) Login with following Credentials

User Name : admin

Password : <da12906084fd405090a9fabfd66342f0> 

3 ) Once you login into the jenkins application you can click on admin profile and reset the password.

Read Initial password :

C:\Program Files(x86)\Jenkins\secrets\initialAdminPassword

Default username is 'admin' and the password is the one from initialAdminPassword when you follow the above path.

'Manage Jenkins' --> 'Manage Users' --> Password

Then logout and login to make sure new password works.

I got the initial password in the path C:\Program Files(x86)\Jenkins\secrets\initialAdminPassword

Then I login successfully with "administrator" as an user name.

This is for windows environment:

I got the Initial Admin password under C:\Users\Deepak("MyUser").jenkins\secrets\initialAdminPassword

I was able to login with user "admin" and above password. Then under Jenkins> people I edited the password of the user and clicked on apply to reflect the changes.
