I'm going to guess you're running Jellyfin on a Synology NAS unit due to the screenshots.
Looks like you don't have the config folder mounted externally from the Jellyfin Docker container.
I would work on figuring out how to pull that data and mounting it externally so if you ever upgrade your container, you don't lose your current configs, watch status data, etc.
Assuming this is using DSM 7:
For step 7, once you use cat on the file, it will print it out onto the screen where you'll be able to see the pin.
Note:

Assuming this is using DSM 7:
- Go to the Container Manager app.
- Go to the Container page.
- Click on the Jellyfin container to open it.
- Click on the "Action" button, then on the "Open terminal" option.
- Click on the "Create" button (which will create a new bash terminal).
- In the terminal, type: cd /config
- You should now be in the config folder where the reset password file is located. Type: cat <password-reset-file-name.json>
For step 7, once you use cat on the file, it will print it out onto the screen where you'll be able to see the pin.
Note:
- You should understand that the pin is case sensitive. You also don't need the "-" marks.
- So if your pin found in the json file is: 2D-44-12-3E
- Your reset pin should be: 2D44123E
- After you reset the password, the pin becomes your new password.
