After updating my pgAdmin version to V4-4.8 I can not login to my database anymore. I'm trying to login on Windows 10.
The error:
Failed to decrypt the saved password.
Error: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 0: invalid continuation byte

The only way to restore the user account is by contacting the Administrator and ask to unlock it.
By Default, the user is 'postgres' and the password is the one which you enter while installing the database. (Version 11,12 I have tested). and enter the password used while installing. Or create a user with login permissions using PgAdmin tool.
The master password is not stored anywhere on the physical storage. It is temporarily stored in the application memory and it does not get saved when the application is restarted. You are prompted to enter the master password when pgAdmin server is restarted.
In PGAdmin 4.10 > Disconnect from Server > right click > Clear Saved Password :)
