How do I reset username and password on phpmyadmin

Hi.

How do I reset username and password on phpmyadmin?

I get this error when I try to access phpmyadmin:

#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

My XAMPP version is xampp-win32-1.8.1

Thanks.

Hi mpnzep,

There is a \xampp\mysql\resetroot.bat file which you can execute when mysql is stopped.
If this will not help, maybe this will: viewtopic.php?f=16&t=52175&p=200442
or the official MySQL ressource: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-windows- ... ndows.html

best wishes,
