Richard package won't work due to the new password min length, we created our own version for things like this as it happens everytime we upgrade an older site to 7.6.x
Thanks to all of guys it does not work Simon i tried . i had to reinstall umbraco from app installer in the server . i don't know what was the problem it work fine on my local machine but when i deploy the files to the server i can not login i tried many time to reinstall but when i use the app installer on the server every thing work fine . I was using the old version of umbraco and i develop all the web site in my computer and then upload the files to the server and every thing goes fine but in the new version of umbraco i does not work like that !!!
I am using Umbraco 7.7.2 and also lost/forgot my password. I was the only administrator.
In the umbracoUser table in SQL, I had to copy the hashed userPassword from a user whose password I did know, since I set it up, to the userPassword field in my user record.
But, this was not enough to make it work. I also had to copy over the value in the securityStampToken field. Once I did this, I was able to log in with the copied user's password and change my own password.
I could be wrong, but I believe that the securityStampToken value is used to hash the password, and so they both have to match when copying over from a different user record.
Also you might have to be wary with these db techniques now as the latest 7.7.4 installer now prompts to add a unique machinekey to your installs, which I think then means the salt becomes unique to that machine key in some way.. so you'd need to carry that around too, though I may be wrong on that.
i forget the admin password
i forget the admin password help help :(
Use this: https://our.umbraco.org/projects/developer-tools/umbraco-admin-reset/
not working i tried
Maybe this one... https://our.umbraco.org/forum/using/ui-questions/4790-ouch-forgot-admin-password-how-to-reset
Jump into the db, change the hash for the user password to:
J94H0MGTTQ3Mx3HWHeLh3A==1CVHtebxZSrTlVdwc/xPfcxcr6Qqej3GvnT3wXrYvyE=
Then login using the password admin12345678

Thank you, Simon. This worked perfectly fine in Umbraco 7.7.7.

Did you recycle the application pool? Which version of Umbraco are you using?

???
or if it was a length issue on pwd you can always reduce the mandatory length ?
minRequiredPasswordLength="8"onAlso you might have to be wary with these db techniques now as the latest 7.7.4 installer now prompts to add a unique machinekey to your installs, which I think then means the salt becomes unique to that machine key in some way.. so you'd need to carry that around too, though I may be wrong on that.
