I am trying to deploy an existent Umbraco instance and forgot admin password. I already tried using the AdminReset DLL, which seems to no work on this version, among other methods. The only way it seems feasible is having a hashed password with the correct umbraco 7.6 hashed format and insert it on the DB.
So can anyone spare an hashed password and its plaintext value so I can try and reset that way? Thanks in advance.
The hashes use a machine key set in the web.config. You would be better creating a fresh install on your machine with the same key in order to create a hash that is compatible.

Hi Steve,
