Resetting Joomla admin password.
We log in to the Plesk control panel of our hosting account.
From the right-hand menu options, we open the Databases.
We open phpmyadmin.
From the left-hand menu in phpmyadmin, we find the table prefix_users (where prefix will be a name of your choice when Joomla was installed) and click Edit on the table.
We find the entry related to the password, and in the right-hand field, we clear its content.
We write a new password and from the dropdown menu next to it, we select MD5 and save the change by clicking Go on the bottom right.
