Thanks, Alex! Much appreciated. That worked. Actually, a proper google search for “wordpress reset dashboard users from command line” also yielded the exact answer to my question.

i need to reset my password and have one-click install
please assist

Hello,

You can easily recover your WordPress password by accessing the admin area login page and click the “Lost your password?” link. You can then enter either your Username or Email Address to receive the new password.

The other option is the reset the password from the WordPress database directly. You can check the following mini tutorial on how to do this here:

Hope that this helps
Regards,
Alex
