the easiest way is to download a mysql release on the mysql site.
Stop WAMP5, replace the /data/mysql/ directory by the one included in the MySQL release you've downloaded, this will reset the MySQL password to '' (empty)

it is impossible to get your root user's password if you do not know the current password. the only option is to follow roms instructions above.

the wamp uninstaller leaves some files on your computer, so you need o a complete uninstall.

uninstall wamp
delete the c:\wamp folder
restart pc
install latest wamp
