This is the way to reset OpenEMM to its default password "openemm":

mysql -u root [-p if password exists]
use openemm
update admin_tbl set pwd_hash = 0x9bd796996fcdf40ad3d86025c03f2c9e where username = "admin";
exit

If you want to set the password to a specific phrase like "secret":

mysql -u root [-p if password exists]
use openemm
select md5("secret");
update admin_tbl set pwd_hash = 0x5ebe2294ecd0e0f08eab7690d2a6ee69 where username = "admin";
exit

The alphanumeric code which is prefixed by 0x (to tag the following code as hex code) is generated by the preceding select md5() statement.
