Lost Parental Lock Code

For some reason, Sage is not accepting the Parental Lock Code I chose and now I'm locked out. Is there some way to reinitialize this without having to recreate the entire properties file?

Thanks,
Mike

I believe you will have to disable parental controls with:
videoframe/enable_pc=false

Then, clear the current password via:
videoframe/pc_code=

heh... I thought about that, but I figured that if you have access to the properties file to delete it, being able to edit it can't be much worse.

Oh -- and for anyone living with your parents: be aware that Windows won't enable file editing or deletion until you are at least 25 years old.

Also - if you have your computer on a network you can simply not provide workstations access to the program files\Sage folder on the network. I only allow access to the movies folders.

Thanks for the info - it's going to save a ton of time.
