Hello, I created some flows in unsecured NodeRed. After I uncommented adminAuth and also httpNodeAuth.  
Now I must log in to edit Node Red which is OK. But, all my previous flows are away because now I´m logged as "admin". Is there some chance to get those flows created as "nobody?". Or I have to comment the auth again and copy flows?  
Thank you.

Oh boy...after reboot there is no authentication at all. settings.js is configured still the same but nodered is now unsecured (no password). I checked the settings.js path (during NodeRed start where it types the path) and is OK. Both admin Auth and httpNodeAuth are active. But all the flows are back 🙂  
Any idea?
