enable switch reset and password

Translator

Good morning!

I have a Cisco Catalyst 2960-X Series switch. I can't get it back. My problem is I don't remember the "enable" password I set. Is there any way to recover this password? Or just reset the switch. If it's just resetting it, like I do. Because I have read the datasheet, I have seen videos on youtube how to reset it, and I can not in any way. It always comes back with the same name (hostname) and always asking to authenticate with the "enable" password.

You need to perform a "Password Recovery" procedure. Marce1000 has provided a link. You can also check on Cisco.com or numerous other sites.
