Joomla uses a one-way encoding method, which means you won't be able to retrieve your old password. However, you will be able to reset the password to a new one using MySQL's built in MD5 function in PHPMyAdmin:
UPDATE example_users SET password=MD5('{new password}') WHERE email = "{Your email address}";
Bingo! - you just successfully reset your Joomla password :) Go to your joomla domain at example.com/administrator and try logging in with the new password. You should be logged in as Super Administrator.
