Description:
I use this to reset my password:
C:\>"C:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.0.45\bin\mysqld-nt.exe" --defaults-file="C:\wamp\b
in\mysql\mysql5.0.45\my.ini" --init-file=C:\ACL_DATA\mysql-init.txt

UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('password') WHERE User='root'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

but after pressing enter key, nothing happen both on the command prompt as well as MySQL Server. I use wamp to install MySQL.

THANKS

How to repeat:
same as above
