Full Version: resetting admin forum password.

I've tried running the query. No matter what I do, I can't reset my admin login password. It won't even email me the details. 

I've tried, 
UPDATE mybb_users SET password '098f6bcd4621d373cade4e832627b4f6'salt '' WHERE uid '1';

and it didn't work. My UID is 100% 1. I just keep trying to login with "test" and it doesn't work...
change password = '098f6bcd4621d373cade4e832627b4f6' to password = 'actualRequiredPassword'
and try again. actualRequiredPassword will be your new password to login !

yes, you can run such SQL queries via phpMyAdmin or similar database application.
