When one checks a MySQL database manager PHPMyAdmin, click database, click users table, find proper user, there is a md5 hash of the password inside the user_pass column.
So one can change this manually.
A) running command of this type:
UPDATE `wp_users` SET `user_pass`= MD5('changeme') WHERE `user_login`='admin';
(note that it is ran on the username "admin" and new password is "changeme")
B) try doubleclicking the user_pass column and replace its content by (no spaces): 4cb9c8a8048fd02294477fcb1a41191a
then login using password: changeme
