The title says it all. Did the devs. release a barebones manual? I'd hope deleting a single file in the Aurora directory would be the answer.

I've realised it must be using the 360 API's native user access control functionality. I've checked the Aurora files and, having set a new pass code, no files have a recent modified date. I.e. wherever the information is being saved is not the Aurora directory. Presumably it's in one of the 360's secret bits of storage. I guess the API allows you to register UI 'screens' or app functionality to be protected by the pin, and the 360 software automatically prompts for the pin when one of those screen or functions is executed. Pretty bizarre IMO. Of course I could be wrong.

If anybody finds any more info, let me know. :ninja:
