Forgot Ubuntu Password? Here's How to Reset User Password in Ubuntu Linux

Hey! its working Thank you😊😊

Thanks for the sharing
It helps

Thanks

Thank you. Worked first time. When instructions this good it helps to keep blood pressure in check.

Thanks a lot. You are a life saver🎉 I could do it heyyyy 🎉

This worked, thank you! I'm not even a computer expert but I am a bit techy. The only part that confused me a little is when you type and re-type the new password, the cursor doesn't move. I thought I was doing something wrong but understand that for security purposes, it doesn't even show blanks or the cursor moving. I saw your cursor didn't move and of course I also searched it on ubuntu Help. Thanks again!

Didn't work for me :(

You've just become my favourite person in the world. I was struggling so much with other videos and yours literally saved me. Thank you

Thank you so much

Thanks for sharing

Please open your mouth and speak. It is impossible to understand what you are clenching your teeth and muttering. It is a challenge for those of us who have no exposure to technical lingo.

If your shell echoes: " mount: special device remount does not exist ", type the code this way: mount -o rw,remount /

it won’t let me go to the root (pink screen) thing!! >:(

you saved my class today, thank you so much!

Legend!

Note for people, if your system boots in UFEI, you hit the ESC button, not the shift key to force the GRUB menu. Beyond that, my eyes aren't good enough to read what he's typing, and that's with a 32" screen! zoom in.

thank you! many other tips did not include specifying passwd and then the user name. no wonder i couldnt access the next stage. thanks again!

You just saved my life with this!

didnt work
