Answer 1

This solution work for all versions of Magento.

Add temporally this at end of index.php

$user = Mage::getModel('admin/user')->loadByUsername('your_username');
$user->setPassword('new_password');
$user->save();

And your new_password was saved. Now remove 3 lines at the end of index.php.

Have a nice day.
