Hey there. It happened to me, too. I tried all that other stuff.

This is what worked for me:

Make sure you delete the file when you’re done changing the password.

I then had to delete my temporary files on IE to get rid of whatever it thought I was trying to login with. Then went back to the Login page and it worked.
Immediately went in and changed the admin password and deleted that emergency.php file. I actually named it something else before putting it in my blog directory in case I forgot to delete it right away.
Hope this helps you save your hair.

Hey there..I was pulling my hair too…
then I found this:

I actually had to go to my other computer and log in fresh then change the password for admin once I got in there. For some reason, the computer I was changing the password on initially was acting weird.

Hope this helps you save your hair.
