Pretty sure that just unlocks the account, doesn't reset the password. What you can do if the password reset function isn't working is to re-enable the start up wizard.
After you've unlocked your account stop Jellyfin.
Open the system.xml.
Near the top there will be a line named "IsStartupWizardComplete" which is currently true. Set it to false. Save and quit.
Restart Jellyfin
When you access Jellyfin it will go through the admin account setup process, including setting the password. Skip all the other steps.
