Hello EGS
The only option is to factory reset the router.
If you have saved modular configuration backups, then restoring them should be fine; https://www.draytek.co.uk/support/guides/kb-configuration-backup-modules
If the above has not been done, it is too late now. Sorry! I am sure that the DrayTek support team will help with any configuration assistance if needed.

we have backup the configuration, Does it will replace the current admin account password after I import the backup config?

I think he means is the admin password stored in the configuration backup.  ie.  if he restores, applies the backup config will be once again be locked out of the router.

I'd imagine the answer is no: the admin password isn't saved (no idea about passwords for other parts of the config, ddns, vpn, etc though)
