MediaWiki Admin On Portable XAMPP

Hello,

I have used the Bitnami Module to install MediaWiki on a flash drive.
During the install it only asks for a database password. It does not provide a field to enter a user name.
The installation completes successfully and the MediaWiki Main page loads fine, but you are not logged in.
As there was no user name created during install I am unable to log in as an Admin. Using root from mysql fails.
Using another Admin user from the mysql table fails as well.
Checking the Mediawiki user table via phpmyadmin shows that there is one user created. But its encrypted so I do not know what the user name is?
How do get this admin user name?

XAMPP ver
xampp-portable-win32-5.6.15-1-VC11
Win 10

Thank you,
