I can suggest a simple hack to get your temporary password to be displayed instead of email
Edit following file
admin/controller/pages/index/forgot_password.php
Locate line 54:
$this->redirect($this->html->getSecureURL('index/forgot_password','&mail=sent'));
Change to :
$password = 'YOUR_NEW_PASS';
$this->model_user_user->editUser($this->user_data['user_id'], array('password' => $password));
exit;
$this->redirect($this->html->getSecureURL('index/forgot_password','&mail=sent'));
Run reset password in admin and new password will be saved.
Attention!! Do not forget to change code back, right away
