@shogundj

Do this

docker exec -u node -it <your-n8n-container-name> n8n user-management:reset

Thank you for this, but i am currently just learning. Do i input that command in my terminal?

Yes.

Use docker ps to find out your container name.
So if your container is n8n, you will key this

docker exec -u node -it n8n n8n user-management:reset
