kde wallet: forgot password


Hi,

I'm running KDE 3.3.0 and I set up KDE wallet some time ago, but then I had to use the Windows side of my computer for a long time and now, as I come back to the linux side of my computer (suse 9.2), I can't for the life of me remember my kde wallet password.

How can I reset it?
Anyone?

Thanks!
James Carruthers

Go into /home/*your_username*/.kde/share/apps/kwallet and delete the file/s in there, then restart kwallet. That should work.

I went into */,kde/share/ but the folder after this, is not */share/apps folder, there is only */.kde/share/config/ folder, and there is nothing else inside the */config/ folder.

just do this
>cd /home/username/.kde4/share/apps/kwallet/
>mv kdewallet.kwl kdewallet.old

if you cant find it do this to find the wallet file

>find / -name kdewallet.kwl
then go to the result folder and rename or delete the file
