    do you have access to your webhosting account?
    often the database is available in the area PHPMYADMIN.
    you can check in the database USERS table to get usernames and associated email addresses that are connected to your website.

    Hi Lisa

    Yes, I have access to it. I couldn’t find PHPMYADMIN, but I did find a PHP file called Users, however having opened it in Notepad I can’t see any users, I’ve search @ and part of my email address and got nothing…

    Thanks

    contact your webhosting vendor to ask how to find and access the database that is connected to your website.

    if you are trying to login to the WordPress dashboard area, the USER table in the database is where the information is stored.

    Since you said you have access to your webhosting account, I assume you have access to your wp-config.php file and can make new files too.
    you can list what’s in your user’s table with
    SELECT * FROM <wp_prefix>_users
    use this in seperate php file and see what you get
