Do you have any other nsx CLI user?

If not, you may want to open a Support Request to VMware GSS/VMware Support if it is a production environment.

If it's a lab environment, you can try this (unsupported) https://virtuallygone.net/2014/07/14/nsx-manager-cli-privileged-mode-password-reset/

Then try to create a new user:

nsx‐mgr(config)# user newuser password plaintext newpassword

nsx‐mgr(config)# user newuser privilege web-interface

tnx for answering

but the site is saied :  " If you followed these procedures properly the privileged mode password should be reset to “default”. This will not affect the password of admin in the web UI. Don’t forget to change the privileged mode password again."

I need the reset the Web UI  

what should I do !

As explained in my previous reply, you can try to reset the privileged mode password first then once you have access to CLI, you can try to create a new user and assign the new user for web UI/web-interface access

nsx‐mgr(config)# user newuser password plaintext newpassword

nsx‐mgr(config)# user newuser privilege web-interface

If you have other CLI user, you can use that too
