GUID export ..? How to guide please?

[virdi]

Hi all,

After having a few password problems ...I want to to do the GUID file export thing to protect from password issues in the future.

Does anybody have a guide or can explain how it's done.

The question / concern I have is ...I have done the GUID export from the Web Interface of the NVR - But once saved on a folder / location on my PC ..I can't actually see the file?

Thanks

Hi @virdi

The video linked in the below thread explains the different password reset options including exporting the GUID file.

@virdi if you use windows explorer it may think the guid file is a system file and hide it. go to windows explorer view and check show system files / file extensions.
