Is there a way to remove/reset the Quick Fields administrative password for a session if the person who was managing the sessions has left the organization or forgotten the password?

JIVEKING posted this solution that worked for me on an 8.3 QF session.

Create a blank session and set the admin password.
Open the new session in wordpad.
Look for this section "<adminPassword> <SecureString Value="?????????=" /> </adminPassword>" near the top.
Copy the value that is in quotes.
Open the original session in wordpad that you are having the problem with.
Replace that value with the new value, save and close wordpad.
Now open that session with Quick Fields and enter the password you entered in the blank session.

From what I've found replacing the line:

<adminPassword>

<SecureString Version="2" Value="?????????=" />

</adminPassword>

with

<adminPassword isNil="true" />

will remove the password so the next time you open the session you can reset it.
