I tried to install splunk universal forwarder, but i used the wrong credentials.

My plan is to install it and do it the right way once again.

 

Know anyone a better case to correct the credentials?

Credentials can be reset using the instructions at https://hurricanelabs.com/splunk-tutorials/splunk-7-1-performing-a-splunk-password-reset/ .  The site describes the procedures for Splunk Enterprise, but the same steps apply to the UF.
