You can set a WebUI password to use for initial setup using the WEBUI_PASSWORD environment variable. This variable won't overwrite an existing password. If you didn't set a password, QBt generates a temporary password which is printed to the QBt logs (config/qBittorrent/data/logs/qbittorrent.log). This temporary password is changed on every restart of QBt and will be overwritten if you set WEBUI_PASSWORD.

You can reset an existing password by deleting the file config/qBittorrent/config/qBittorrent.conf or just removing the line starting with WebUI\Password_PBKDF2= from it.
