Joomla Password Reset Portable

This is the portable edition of Joomla Password Reset, a simple-to-use software application that can reset the password to your Joomla database by creating a new hash to replace the old one with.
It comes packed with a very intuitive set of options that lets users accomplish this task effortlessly and in no time.

Portability perks

Since installation is not a prerequisite, you can put the executable file in any location on the hard disk and just click it to run.
Another possibility is to save a copy of Joomla Password Reset to a USB flash disk or similar storage unit, to be able to run it on any machine without previously installing anything.
An important aspect to take into account is that the Windows registry and Start menu do not receive new entries, so no tracks are left behind after Joomla Password Reset's removal.

Clean and straightforward GUI

The interface is represented by a single window with a clear-cut structure, where all options are visible. It is necessary to specify the new password and click a button to immediately translate it into hash.

Seamlessly update the password hash

This new value can be copied to the Clipboard with the click of a button, after which you can navigate to the CMS and update the password hash. There are no other notable options provided by this software utility.

Performance and conclusion

The app immediately calculates the hash for the new password. It uses low CPU and memory, so it does not hog system resources. No error dialogs were shown in our tests, and Joomla Password Reset did not hang or crash. In a nutshell, it delivers a quick method to changing the admin password in Joomla databases.
