    Reset admin password on 7.6

    Is there a way reset the admin password, in version 7.6.1 I have tried all the method that been described in previous article non of them worked.

    http://www.codeshare.co.uk/blog/how-to-reset-the-umbraco-admin-account-password/

    https://our.umbraco.org/forum/using/ui-questions/49134-Forget-My-Password-For-Umbraco-Admin-Site

    I even tried a fresh install and used the values from "userPassword" & "securityStampToken" into the locked user.

    Any reason why reset password doesn't work?

    Yes, you can use the below code snippet for resetting the admin password

    var user = ApplicationContext.Services.UserService.GetUserById(userId);
if (user != null)
   {
    user.Username = userName;
    user.IsApproved = true;
    user.IsLockedOut = false;                   
    ApplicationContext.Services.UserService.Save(user);                
   //Change password
   ApplicationContext.Services.UserService.SavePassword(user,userPassword);
   }

    Hi Hussein,

    Did you check if user isn't locked out? The userNoConsole field in the database should have value 0. If it has value 1 the user is locked out.

    Note: If you change this value from 1 to 0 you need to restart your webapp.
