Reset admin password
Run the following command to stop qBittorrent-nox service:
sudo service qbittorrent-nox stop
Now you need to find qBittorrent-nox configuration file named qBittorrent.conf. On Linux systems, file usually located in /.config/qBittorrent/qBittorrent.conf or ~/.config/qBittorrent/qBittorrent.conf. You can use the following command to find a file:
sudo find / -name qBittorrent.conf

sudo sed -i '/WebUI\\Password/d' /.config/qBittorrent/qBittorrent.conf
Start qBittorrent-nox service:
