Password resetting problem

Speedball

New Pleskian
Hey guys, I have some issues to reset my password.

PRODUCT: Plesk
VERSION: 11.5 (at least the Desktop shortcut says so) - don't know the Microupdate - if there is a CMD command I could provide that too.
OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows Server 12 Standard
ARCHITECTURE: x64

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
I forgot my password. Sadly the password resetting using plesksrvclient.exe doesn't seem to work. If I change the password from there I still get "Error: You have entered incorrect username or password." I tried multiple times and also restarted plesk/the entire server.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Forget your password.

ACTUAL RESULT
Can't login.

EXPECTED RESULT
Can login.

ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
None, feel free to request additional information.

Thanks in advance!
 
Why you can't get current admin's password with

"%plesk_bin%\plesksrvclient" -get

?
