    Hello everybody,
    just wanted to ask you - is it possible to retrieve somehow the Super Admin password and username, without holding the registered e-mail, but with 100% full access to the server/database?

    ...or can I edit the Admin mail address - put mine and then use password reset?
    Is this is a working scenario ?

    ... actually you can close this - I simply changed the SU email in the exp_members table

    Hey vladyn,

    Glad to hear you got it figured out! I was going to suggest the very thing.

    If you need anything else, please just let me know by opening a new thread.

    Cheers,
