@@sysdrive i was able to reset password with your help. But when i enter new pw to login it does nothing. Just go back to login screen

For 48hrs I believed and accepted I lost ALL my passwords that were stored on my phone. One of them was for my Linux machine. I came across your video and your teaching is simple and clear and I was very fortunate to have found you. Dude if you have any future tips to improve our linux machines i.e. speed them up or whatever helps please make more videos. NEW SUB!😃

This works. Absolutely no BS and to the point 👍

I was just about done when I found this video. Thanks man. You saved me a world of trouble.

Bro thank you... I got gallium os a pc I bought but didn't know the password been struggling on utube for weeks... Your instructions have worked wish I found you sooner... Thank you.

As a non native speaker I gotta tell you . It's amazing, save my time.

Hadn’t used my spare Mint drive in a while, this video is exactly what I needed. For anyone using a Lenovo machine, if holding shift on reboot isn’t getting you into GRUB, hit Ctrl+alt+del on the mint logo during startup, and that should take you to GRUB. Took me a bit to figure it out.

After watching similar vids from the ‘indian devs’ and no success, finally yours worked :) thank you

For years have been finding this video have eventually seen it Great work bro❤

Thank you, this works I haven't been able to login my linux in a while

It works! Man, its hard to get the timing right but you have to get that "esc" at just the right moment or it won't work

Great video, got me out of a big problem

In my case, I had to Hit ESC key then f10 and ended up in my GRUB from there this tutorial seems accurate

Thank you it worked

Thanks a lot..... It worked 👍👍

saved me man thanks !

Thank you bro

Works perfectly 😊😊

Work thanks

Thank you so much

Thanks... It worked..

One thing to note when changing your password (at least for me) is type your username all in lowercases. I knew my username started with a capital letter, but it kept telling me that my user account didn't exist for some reason. I fixed it by putting in all lowercase and then it finally prompted me to enter a new password.

Thanks a lot 🙏

Thank you Bro😘

Very helpful except I couldn’t access grub menu with shift for me it was ctrl + alt + del when the mint logo appears

Very useful

Thanks!

Another way I found that is less complex if you know the Linux terminal is to mount the drive and to chroot into it and DO NOT CHANGE THE PASSWORD THE SYSTEM WILL LOCK and to backup the files of the old user into a new folder somewhere in the home dir and to change the password of root and to login as root from the main system and create the user again and delete the contents of the user and try and transfer the files to the new user

Thanks man

Thank You

Thankyou

I've tried using both shift keys and nothing happens. I can access a ASRock UEFI menu using F2 F11 and DEL, which has options for booting the system but it doesn't seem to be the same as the GRUB menu. Sorry if this is a dumb question, I'm a noob at this stuff

@SysDrive Hey. It worked so far and I'm at the "root@(none):/#" stage but this is where all my keyboards stop working. I can not type anything. I tried different keyboards and it gives me USB driver output when I connect and disconnect a keyboard and there are no errors but I can not type anything. Do you know why that is?

Merge perfect.mulțumesc !

I didn't have (none) there and also I have to restart my pc completely after I change the password with F8 and then had to select ubuntu on the menu and then I only ended up on this reboot screen again, where I pressed enter. Then I hit the new password and my pc just turns blackscreen for a few seconds and then I have to retype the password again...

Linux mint 21, 9/27/23 it worked perfectly

Thank you...You Da Man!...I tried several of these and this one worked. I did have to remove "$vt_handoff" from the prompt where the "rw init...was to be placed. Thanks again. 😀

POV: you feel like a hecker after watching this video and trying it on your pc and it actually worked

i'm running debian 11 and it asks me to add an 'option' (something like this --> -[letter]) but i don't know what one do i choose ;-;

wow thank you

I have a question mine when i type the passwd command it tells me [options] a, all d,delete e,expire

I can't get into the GRUB Menu, because I have only an USB connected keyboard. Is there any other way to get into GRUB? I get locked in when Linux is booting and after that I can use the keyboard, because I guess the USB driver is loaded. I can't update the system or download new software, because I forgot my password. And the keyboard, how I said, works only when linx mint is already running.

My thing has quiet apparmor=1 instead of quiet splash, what do I do?

❤شكرا لقد تم بنجاح تغير الباسورد

oh dear, when I press shift while booting up I get a blank screen forever, releasing shift boot up continues to the password screen so still cannot get in 😕

Omfg THANK YOU.

anyone know why keyboard work work after bin/bash ?

i usually input my machine password to the wrong service and that makes me change my password lots of times, and, as you can guess after 5 or more password changes, i forgot the last one, i changed the password bu now its in an infinite loop

This worked and without rebooting at root.

When I press shift as it is booting up, it just loads normally into the login section.

Now can this method set a pin number for the password or not?

I'm having to do this via laptop and I can't even follow because holding shift while its rebooting isn't working

Hello from New York City! Does this work to recover toot user password? Thank you.

Wish this worked for me cause I can't enter the grub menu shift does not work. For me I'm on linux mint 19 cinnamon I just get the linux logo then straight to the desktop so I can do this but everything I try asks for a admin or account password and I don't know them :(
