Hi,

- Resetting a forgotten root password
and/or
- Reassign root with all privileges

If you have set a password for the root user, but you have forgotten it, or you accidentally deleted all with root privileges, you can choose a new password and re-allocate privileges the following procedure in Windows:

The Windows session must be administrator and Wampserver started as administrator.

1. Stop the mysql service
wampmanager -> MySQL -> Service -> Stop Service

2. Edit the my.ini file
wampmanager -> MySQL -> my.ini

3. Find the [wampmysqld] or [wampmysqld64] section in the ini file
Add this line directly after the section [wampmysqld] or [wampmysqld64]

skip-grant-tables

4. Restart the mysql service.
wampmanager -> MySQL -> Service -> Start/Resume Service

5. Open the MySQL console
wampmanager -> MySQL -> MySQL Console

6a. Now we are going to reset the password for the root user, of course this could be used to reset any users password.

enter the following 2 commands at the mysql> command prompt, each with a semi colon at the end of a line, and press ENTER after each line to issue the command to mysql.
--- For MySQL versions prior 5.7.0

UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('MyNewPass') WHERE user='root';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

--- For MySQL versions after 5.7.0

UPDATE mysql.user SET authentication_string = PASSWORD('MyNewPass'), password_expired = 'N' WHERE User = 'root';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

6b. Reassign all privileges to root : enter the following 2 commands at the mysql> command prompt, each with a semi colon at the end of a line, and press ENTER after each line to issue the command to mysql. (Given the length of the first line, it is necessary to perform copy / paste).

UPDATE mysql.user SET Select_priv='Y', Insert_priv='Y', Update_priv='Y', Delete_priv='Y', Create_priv='Y', Drop_priv='Y', Reload_priv='Y', Shutdown_priv='Y', Process_priv='Y', File_priv='Y', Grant_priv='Y', References_priv='Y', Index_priv='Y', Alter_priv='Y', Show_db_priv='Y', Super_priv='Y', Create_tmp_table_priv='Y', Lock_tables_priv='Y', Execute_priv='Y', Repl_slave_priv='Y', Repl_client_priv='Y', Create_view_priv='Y', Show_view_priv='Y', Create_routine_priv='Y', Alter_routine_priv='Y', Create_user_priv='Y', Event_priv='Y', Trigger_priv='Y', Create_tablespace_priv='Y' WHERE User='root';

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Note that the update should report that it has updated more than one row, that because there are actually 3 user accounts with the userid of 'root' each with a different domain i.e. 127.0.0.1, localhost and ::1

7. Now enter 'quit' at the mysql command promt to exist mysql.

8. Stop the mysql service
wampmanager -> MySQL -> Service -> Stop Service

9. Edit the my.ini file
wampmanager -> MySQL -> my.ini

10. Find the [wampmysqld] or [wampmysqld64] section in the ini file
Remove the 'skip-grant-tables' parameter we added earlier.
DO NOT Leave this parameter in the ini file its a HUGH security hole.

11. Restart the mysql service.
wampmanager -> MySQL -> Service -> Start/Resume Service

You shoud now be able to login with phpmyadmin using the userid 'root' and the new password you have just set for that user.
