How to reset Drupal admin user password easily from phpMyAdmin?

How to reset dupla 7 admin user password easily
How to reset Drupal admin user password easily?
In this post, we shall see how to reset Drupal admin user password easily from phpMyAdmin. If it is on a production site, we can do "forgot password" to let Drupal send us a password reset link. But on local development server, we might not have a provision to do it. So we may need to do it some other ways. We can reset passwords for user from phpMyAdmin by running some scripts. But as you might already know that passwords in Drupal are hashed. So we need to know the hash code of a password before running such sql command. I have included a SQL code for password reset in Drupal 7 at the end of this post.

This example is on local Drupal 7 running on XAMPP (Windows). In this example, we generate a hash code of a password we desire and replace the existing hash code in PHPMYADMIN with the new one to change the password. Admin can then login in with the new password and may change the password as usually done in Drupal by editing the user.

Best of e-mail clients alternative to Outlook: eM Client: setup Yahoo or Gmail or others email accounts with eM Client

Best of e-mail clients alternative to Outlook eM Client
Looking for a good email client? There are plenty of choices out there, but before you decide, choose a good one. Of course, you might want to try a few and check out their features and move on to the next if you got time to experiment. The best use of e-mail clients is access to previous(already synced) emails offline. You don�t need to go online every time to check previous emails. Most of us who use emails have used Outlook I suppose. It is �the-must-have� email client in corporate offices. But for home use, if you don't like to use Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird is also a good email client replacement for Microsoft Outlook. If you are interested in Thunderbird, find previous posts here.
eM Client: Probably one of the best email client out there.

Yes, there could be some hidden partitions on the hard disk such as the "Recovery Partition" and some manufacturer specific partitions for system recovery and tools etc. A user would normally like to have at least two partitions on the computer to manage personal files separate from the Windows partition. So, if your computer came with a single accessible partition, how to create more partitions?

What is hard disk partitioning?
Hard disk partitioning as the name indicates is the process of dividing a hard disk into partitions or logical disks on the same physical hard disk and treat each partition as a separate disk.
