class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Forgetting a Magento administrator password can prevent you from accessing important store management functions. Fortunately, Magento provides several ways to regain access, depending on whether you can still use the Admin login page, another administrator account, or server-level access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A password reset should be performed carefully because the Magento Admin Panel controls sensitive store settings, customer information, orders, products, payment configuration, and other important resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This guide explains how to reset a Magento Admin password using the built-in recovery option, another administrator account, and the Magento command line. It also covers common password-reset problems and security best practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_Should_You_Reset_a_Magento_Admin_Password\"><\/span>When Should You Reset a Magento Admin Password?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You may need to reset an administrator password when:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You have forgotten your password.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A password has expired according to your security policy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An administrator is unable to log in.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A staff member needs a new password.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You suspect that administrator credentials may have been exposed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You are taking over an existing Magento store.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A temporary administrator account needs new credentials.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you suspect unauthorized access, don&#8217;t simply change the password. Review administrator accounts, logs, active sessions, and other security controls as part of your incident-response process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator

Password Using SSH<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have SSH access to the Magento server, the Magento command-line interface can be used to manage administrator accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, navigate to the Magento root directory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>cd \/var\/www\/html<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Verify that the Magento CLI is available:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>php bin\/magento<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should see the Magento command-line interface output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_the_Magento_Admin_User_Command\"><\/span>Use the Magento Admin User Command<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Magento provides administrator user commands through its CLI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To see the available administrator commands, run:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>php bin\/magento admin:user<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on your Magento version, available commands can include operations for creating or managing administrator accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, the administrator creation command is commonly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>php bin\/magento admin:user:create<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Magento will prompt you for administrator information, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>Admin user\nAdmin password\nAdmin email\nAdmin first name\nAdmin last name<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Creating_a_Replacement_Admin_User\"><\/span>Creating a Replacement Admin User<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you cannot recover the original administrator account but still have authorized server access, creating a new administrator account may be appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Run:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>php bin\/magento admin:user:create<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Follow the prompts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>Admin user: newadmin\nAdmin password: ********\nAdmin email: admin@example.com\nAdmin first name: Store\nAdmin last name: Administrator<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After successfully creating the account, use the new credentials to access the Admin Panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Important\"><\/span>Important<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only create an administrator account when you are authorized to manage the Magento installation. Administrator accounts provide access to sensitive store functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Resetting_a_Password_Through_the_Database\"><\/span>Resetting a Password Through the Database<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Directly modifying the Magento database should generally be considered a <strong>last-resort recovery method<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Magento stores administrator credentials securely rather than as plain-text passwords. Therefore, manually replacing a password value in the database is not as simple as entering a new plain-text password.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not run SQL such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>UPDATE admin_user\nSET password = 'newpassword';<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This does not correctly create a Magento password hash and can leave the account unusable or insecure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead, use Magento&#8217;s supported administrative or CLI mechanisms whenever possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_You_Should_Avoid_Direct_Database_Password_Changes\"><\/span>Why You Should Avoid Direct Database Password Changes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Magento uses password hashing mechanisms rather than storing administrator passwords in plain text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Direct database modifications can cause problems such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Invalid password hashes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Authentication failures<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Incorrect password metadata<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compatibility problems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Security risks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accidental database corruption<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If normal password-reset methods are unavailable, use Magento&#8217;s command-line tools or another supported administrative recovery procedure rather than guessing the database format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr

run:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>php bin\/magento admin:user:create<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you still have access to another authorized

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If Magento is hosted on cPanel, you can use the standard password-recovery process through the Admin login page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have SSH or Terminal access, navigate to the Magento root:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>cd \/home\/USERNAME\/public_html<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then verify the Magento CLI:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>php bin\/magento<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If server-level recovery is necessary, use Magento&#8217;s supported CLI administrator commands rather than directly editing password

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have authorized SSH access, Magento&#8217;s CLI can be used to manage administrator accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>php bin\/magento admin:user:create<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Creating a new administrator account may be simpler

in:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>app\/etc\/env.php<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Look for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>'backend' =&gt; &#91;\n    'frontName' =&gt; 'your_admin_path'\n],<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>'frontName' =&gt;

id=\"Email_Configuration_Problem\"><\/span>Email Configuration Problem<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Magento may be unable to send the reset

id=\"Incorrect_Administrator_Email\"><\/span>Incorrect Administrator Email<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The email address may not belong to

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the Admin Panel behaves unexpectedly, clearing Magento cache may help:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre

id=\"Server_or_PHP_Error\"><\/span>Server or PHP Error<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check Magento logs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre

login attempts or security controls may temporarily restrict access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If another authorized administrator can access the Admin Panel, check the affected account and authentication settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If necessary, investigate:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Security extensions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Web

class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_I_reset_my_Magento_Admin_password\"><\/span>How do I reset my Magento Admin password?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Open the Magento Admin login page, select <strong>Forgot Your Password?<\/strong>, enter the administrator email address, and follow the password-reset instructions sent by Magento.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_reset_a_Magento_password_using_SSH\"><\/span>Can I reset a Magento password using SSH?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have authorized server access, Magento&#8217;s CLI provides administrator-management commands. You can use these tools to manage administrator accounts without directly modifying password hashes in the database.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_reset_the_password_from_another_Admin_account\"><\/span>Can I reset the password from another Admin account?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. An authorized administrator with appropriate user-management permissions can edit the affected administrator account and set a new password.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_is_the_Magento_Admin_password_stored\"><\/span>Where is the Magento Admin password stored?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Magento does not store administrator passwords as plain text. Password credentials are stored using password hashing, so you should not expect to find a readable password in the database.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_change_the_password_directly_in_MySQL\"><\/span>Can I change the password directly in MySQL?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Directly replacing the password field with a plain-text value is not a valid Magento password-reset method. Use Magento&#8217;s Admin Panel or supported CLI tools instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_should_I_do_if_I_dont_receive_the_password-reset_email\"><\/span>What should I do if I don&#8217;t receive the password-reset email?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check your spam folder and verify the administrator email address. If the message still does not arrive, investigate Magento&#8217;s email configuration, SMTP service, and server mail logs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_resetting_the_Admin_password_change_the_Admin_URL\"><\/span>Does resetting the Admin password change the Admin URL?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. The administrator password and Admin URL are separate configuration elements. Resetting the password does not normally change the administrator path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Should_I_reset_all_administrator_passwords_after_a_security_incident\"><\/span>Should I reset all administrator passwords after a security incident?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have reason to believe administrator credentials may have been compromised, password changes may be part of a broader incident-response process. Review all administrator accounts, authentication settings, logs, access controls, and other potentially affected credentials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Thoughts\"><\/span>Final Thoughts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Resetting a Magento Admin password is usually straightforward when the built-in <strong>Forgot Your Password?<\/strong> feature is available. If email recovery is not possible, an authorized administrator or server administrator can use Magento&#8217;s supported account-management mechanisms to restore access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Avoid directly writing plain-text passwords into the Magento database. Instead, use the Admin Panel or Magento CLI wherever possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once access has been restored, protect the account with a strong unique password, two-factor authentication, appropriate permissions, and regular administrator-account reviews. If the password reset was caused by suspected unauthorized access, investigate the broader security situation rather than treating the password change as the only corrective action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"How to Reset a Magento Admin Password Forgetting a Magento administrator password can prevent you from accessing important&hellip;","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"csco_display_header_overlay":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[138],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2716","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-magento","cs-entry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How to Reset a Magento Admin Password?
