Lost password, can't login

I changed my password and immediately lost it. I followed the instructions of going into config/.storage and deleting “auth” and “onboarding”. Rebooted HA and was greeted with the onboarding screen. I created user Bob with username bob (autogenerated) and password as password. Clicked create account. Waited a couple minutes, rebooted entire machine. Now I’m greeted with the login page and it doesn’t accept my username and password.

I actually created three different users with three different accounts with all the same password and none of them work on reboot. What’s going on?

The solution was to ALSO delete the OTHER auth file that has a longer name.
