manage jenkins don't appear on Jenkins

Question

I downloaded Jenkins.war and I put it in tomcat/webapps directory. I launch http://127.0.0.1:8080/jenkins.

I created the first job by configuring jenkins and the job too. Everything worked well and I went to "manage jenkins" for putting all permissions for everyone but I lost all permissions and to access to manage jenkins too.

Please, What should I do for having all options in "Manage Jenkins".

If you need to temporarily disable the security, so that you have admin access again, you can follow the steps on the disable security wiki page:

Stop Jenkins.
Go to $JENKINS_HOME in the file system and find config.xml.
In this file, find the <useSecurity>true</useSecurity> element.
Replace true with false.
Remove the elements authorizationStrategy and securityRealm.
Start Jenkins.
