What do you mean it doesn't work? You didn't get the email? Check your junk folder.

Also, please don't say 'i'm not that dumb' when I'm helping you out. Ever heard of gratitude?

sorry for being rude (wife just smacked me in the head) only had 1 hour of sleep and so far my day has been downhill
The security 'Disallow admin to send new password' is active in Admin Panel > General Admin > Security
thats what i'm getting
and clicking the forgot password thing is normaly the first thing people try
