So my boss had issues with previous dev. The dev disappeared after the full payment was made. Now, I want to transfer the website my hosting, what I have is only the dev cpanel access. I can transfer the website through ftp but how to reconfigure the domain DNS since it is registered under the dev email. Is there any loophole here?

The problem is, do you accessed to the email address registered on the domain name owner. Check www.who.is for the domain name registration. Something wrong, u got deep trouble

He said the dev registered under his name without telling him anything. So the domain registered under 'Najmi' but the email is under the dev.

You need access the email account received the permission code for transfer domain name. Deep trouble

Anyway, would you PM me the domain name? I know you have probably looked at every possible way, but maybe there's something there...

The domain is tied to the email for security reasons. So if the dev registered it under his personal or company email, there is nothing much u can do other than to register a new one (cost only 10-20 USD).
It is a normal practice to register the domain under the company it is serving. Most dev will not register under their name, ex: if you do something illegal then he will kena.

you have to contact the dev to transfer the domain to you or wait for the domain to expire and buy it when it does. but you to take this as a lesson and register your own domains after this
