    Solved Lost Admin Password and Can't Recover It

    Post by Henix879 7/7/2011, 15:57

    Yep, I lost my password.

    I actually ran into this issue before but found my password again. However, this time I can't access the Admin panel AT ALL because for some reason I was logged out and the password I KNOW is correct isn't working.

    And what makes it worse is that I turned on the security thing that disallows password requests for administrator accounts.

    Help?

    Just tried that, it's not accepting the password.

    Yes, I am using the password used at creation.

    If it's not accepting the password, either your e-mail or password is incorrect.
