    Hey there zupi,

    I am sorry to hear you are running into this problem.

    Have you tried going through the forgotten password process to reset the password? That is probably the best route.

    If that does not work, you can access the DB and change the email for the admin user that way.

    I hope this helps. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help with.

    Cheers,
