Hi Roland

Sorry for the late reply, you were not being ignored on purpose...

Unfortunately, reseting is not an option...

You might be better off and just easier doing a full reinstall...unless there is data of a particularly important nature you wish to try and retreive.

Here it is how to reset the admin password if you have FTP access to the website:

create an SQL backup in your local installation

[li]create a file in the root directory with .php extension and put in it Code:
<?php require 'core.php';
$conn->Execute('INSERT SQL HERE');
?>

replace INSERT SQL HERE with the INSERT INTO #..users ... row found in your SQL backup file. You should pick the row of your admin user

before running the script, remove the first field from VALUES(...) and "id" from (id, ...

execute the SQL script on the remote server and remove the file

Sorry for this late reply - but I did not notice it before
