Windows下mysql忘记root密码的解决方法：
Mysql版本：5.5-community MySQL Community Server (GPL)
1、 首先检查mysql服务是否启动，若已启动则先将其停止服务，可在开始菜单的运行，使用命令：
net stop mysql
或者在windows任务管理器中结束mysqld.exe进程，或者在控制面板，管理工具里面的服务找到mysql，将其停止服务。
打开第一个cmd窗口，切换到mysql的bin目录，运行命令：
mysqld --defaults-file="C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\my.ini" --console --skip-grant-tables
注释：
该命令通过跳过权限安全检查，开启mysql服务，这样连接mysql时，可以不用输入用户密码。
"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\my.ini" 指配置文件my.ini，一般在mysql安装目录里面。如：
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\bin>mysqld --defaults-file="C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\my.ini" --console --skip-grant-tables
110301 9:20:07 [Warning] '--default-character-set' is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please use '--character-set-server' instead.
110301 9:20:07 [Note] Plugin 'FEDERATED' is disabled.
110301 9:20:07 InnoDB: Initializing buffer pool, size = 46.0M
110301 9:20:07 InnoDB: Completed initialization of buffer pool
110301 9:20:07 InnoDB: Started; log sequence number 0 44233
110301 9:20:07 [Note] mysqld: ready for connections.
Version: '5.5-community' socket: '' port: 3306 MySQL Community Server (GPL)
2、打开第二个cmd窗口，连接mysql：
输入命令：
mysql -uroot -p
出现：
Enter password:
在这里直接回车，不用输入密码。
然后就就会出现登录成功的信息，
如：
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 3

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the current input statement.
mysql>
使用命令：
show databases;
显示已有数据库：
+--------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| mysql |
| test |
+--------------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
使用命令切换到mysql数据库：
use mysql;
使用命令更改root密码：
UPDATE user SET Password=PASSWORD('newpassword') where USER='root';
刷新权限：
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
然后退出，重新登录：
quit
重新登录：
mysql -uroot -p
出现输入密码提示，输入新的密码即可登录：
Enter password: ***********
显示登录信息：
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 9

mysql>
到这里root密码就已经修改成功了，用Ctrl+C将第一个cmd窗口结束，那样就会停止mysql服务，如：
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\bin>mysqld --defaults-file="C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\my.ini" --console --skip-grant-tables
110301 10:29:47 [Warning] '--default-character-set' is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please use '--character-set-server' instead.
110301 10:29:47 [Note] Plugin 'FEDERATED' is disabled.
110301 10:29:47 InnoDB: Initializing buffer pool, size = 46.0M
110301 10:29:47 InnoDB: Completed initialization of buffer pool
110301 10:29:48 InnoDB: Started; log sequence number 0 44233
110301 10:29:48 [Note] mysqld: ready for connections.
Version: '5.5-community' socket: '' port: 3306 MySQL Community Server (GPL)
（此处输入ctrl+c）
110301 10:30:58 [Note] mysqld: Normal shutdown
110301 10:30:58 InnoDB: Starting shutdown...
110301 10:31:03 InnoDB: Shutdown completed; log sequence number 0 44233
110301 10:31:03 [Note] mysqld: Shutdown complete
Mysql服务停止了，输入命令：
net start mysql，即可重新启动mysql服务，如：
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\bin>net start mysql
MySQL 服务正在启动 .
MySQL 服务已经启动成功。
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\bin>
