If, in Priviledges within PHPMyAdmin, the root user has no password, you probably should change that and if the config file says $cfg = true, probably best to change true to false after giving root a password.Īfter doing this, it will start using cookies and will offer a log in window when the cookie doesn't log you straight in, so from here on, uberconversion's answer should work for you when you need to switch users. (Recommended) Delete or comment out the lines that are storing your password. $cfg = 'a rAnd0m str11!11111!11!nG' Ĭhange the authentication type to cookie: $cfg = 'cookie' // DEFAULT: 'config' As the file comments say, this string is used to encrypt your password in cookie based authentication (which is what you are about to change to). (Recommended) Change the blowfish_secret to any random string. You will also see your name and password. Since you are not seeing a log-in screen, you probably have $cfg = 'config' in there, probably around line 19. if it was ever deleted or inaccessible for some crazy reason):

There's an answer on that explains how to change this - I've included a tidied up answer based on that one here, to save time and in case something bizarre happens (e.g. If not, there are a couple of simple changes needed in config files.
If you got PHPMyAdmin through XAMPP, there's a really easy way to change this at the end of this answer. This means it will never offer a log-in window, because it thinks it already has your details, and until you change these settings, uberconversion's answer won't work as the appropriate cookie is never used.Īfter these settings are changed to use cookies (below), you can use uberconversion's method, or, in some versions of PHPMyAmdin, there is an icon in the bar of small icons in the top left of the screen that looks like an open door with a green arrow pointing to the left (mouseover text: "Log Out"), which does the same thing slightly more conveniently. It sounds like you have the default settings, which, in most Windows packages I've seen, usually means that logging as 'root' with password '' is hard-wired into the code and ignores cookies etc.
