Hello Ken,
I suggest you contact 4D tech support. As mentioned you need to prove
ownership or authorisation from the owner. This route has worked for me in
the past.

Thanks to all who responded!
Wayne Stewart was able to wave his magic wand and make the Designer Password go
away. I have now reset it.
There was a comment that if I had access to the design environment via the
Administrator login, an option would be to just leave things the way they were.
The problem with that approach is many fold. First if something happens to
users and groups and admin becomes bad you will be stuck. If you are going to
follow that path, I would create another use by duplicating administrator and
use that one

Ken:
Chuck pointed out that you didn't have access as designer (I just
skimmed the email yesterday), rather you have access "to the design
environment".
The empty U file is worth a try but as Thomas implies, perhaps there's no
significant downside to leaving the current situation as is. I've

You might be able to remove all users and groups by logging in as designer
and importing an empty users and groups file.

One more thought. If you can prove ownership, perhaps 4D cN change designer
password for you

I don’t think so. I think the only person who can change designer password is
designer.
The only option would be to recreate structured and then move forms and methods
over

Hi All,
I recently “inherited” a 4D v12 (Windows) database. The original developer has
forgotten the Designer Password. But, fortunately, he had enabled the settings
to allow the Administratror to access the design environment and the customer
had that password. So, I’ve been able to make the
10 matches
