Reset admin's Password
If you forgot the password for admin and are therefore unable to log in to DSM, you can reset the password to
blank and set a new password.
To reset admin's password:
Press and hold the RESET button on the back panel of your Synology DiskStation for 4 seconds until you heard
a beep sound.
Note: Other than resetting administrator's password, using the RESET button will also restore Synology DiskStation's
IP and DNS to the default value.
Restore Synology DiskStation to Factory Defaults
Go to Main Menu > Control Panel > Restore Defaults if you want to restore your Synology DiskStation to
factory defaults.
There are three restore options:
Format the hard disk but keep the current settings: All user data in the hard drive will be deleted; whereas
the system configurations will remain.
Format the hard disk and restore to factory default settings: All user data in the hard drive will be deleted
and the entire system will be restored to default.
Reset the password of MySQL database: The password of the MySQL database will be reset.
If you wish to delete your MySQL databases, check the Delete MySQL databases checkbox and click OK.
