Hi All,  
I have a test MoonWalk installation that is managing a set of data. Problem is we don’t have a record of the admin password. Is there a mechanism to reset this account or recover the password? I want to gracefully return the data to it’s original location and move to a production focus with the system.

Thanks, Kevin.

Hi Kevin,  
There is a password reset tool in the install directory:  
C:\Program Files\Moonwalk\AdminTools\

You will need to restart the Webapps service before you try to log in with the new password.

Regards,

Hannah
