Most of the time not, because the password is MD5 encrypted. You can try decrypting the hash with some online MD5 decrypter. But simply changing the password in PHPMyAdmin is easier:
1. Select the database associated with your WordPress installation from the list on the left-hand side.
2. Look for the table named “wp_users” (the table prefix may vary). Click on it to open it.
Locate your username in the “user_login” column and click on the “Edit” button (pencil icon) next to it.
3. Find the “user_pass” column and delete the existing value.
4. Enter your new password in the “Value” field and select the “MD5” function from the drop-down menu next to it.
5. Click the “Go” button to save the changes.
Your password has now been updated. You can log in to your WordPress site with the new password.
It is not possible for you to easily determine what the current password is using phpMyAdmin as the password is encrypted.
Instead you should just [reset the admin password from within phpMyAdmin]).
Perform a reset??
Use your browser’s password saving function to remember your password.
