Process List
- Login to your cPanel and locate phpMyAdmin
- Once you have located the database the Joomla! CMS is currently using, click the #_users table
- Click Browse to display individual records
- Click the ‘Edit’ icon next to the entry you would like to modify
- In the password field, change the function in the drop-down list to ‘MD5’
- Select and Delete the value and replace with a temporary password: for example ‘123456’
- Save by clicking the ‘Go’ button
- Login to the administrator using this temporary password
- Immediately change the temporary password in the user manager to reset the salted MD5 encryption
That's it!
