Hi Alen,

I have accidentally deleted the Admin user in my Sitecore instance and lost access to it. Have you managed to resolve this issue?

Hi @AlenPelin For some reason this has stopped working for me. keeps redirecting me to the login page to which I have no access to because the users have been deleted again/ any ideas?
