Hi, I am using a software where there's a password to log in into the GUI, which I have forgotten. I could see if I browse that table, it is written as "<Binary Data>" in "Password" Column. I don't know how to reset this password, so that I could log in to my software again.

The password is hashed or encrypted. Contact the software vendor.
