Yep doing a factory reset will be just like you opened it out of the box....except if you did any firmware updates, that will remain - it doesn't revert back the firmware to what it left the factory with LOL.

Thanks all

Is there another way to get rid of all passwords if I create another admin without factory reset?

You should be able to delete any account except admin. You can set a new pass for admin easily in the account settings.

make sure you have your passwords for your cams.

Factory reset is the only way to blow out admin's password. At least this manufacturer has a button inside most models to hold down till it beeps when powering it on.
