Good morning fellow Zoriners
Yes, I have lost my password. Lost? Not quite sure, since I do not even remember setting one. It reads crazy, I know, but it seems to me as if Zorin created a password of its own and is now asking me to guess it
. But I am no psychic. At this point, I fear I will soon have to delete the partition and do a fresh install of Windows7. I have tried all the passwords I am currently using on different websites. I have unsuccessfully tried up to 100 times resetting it. LEt me just copy paste what I posted to "Ask-Ubuntu" on 24th January :
24th Jan 2018_ 8:10 pm_ I have just tried this method: 1_Reboot your system 2- Highlight your image and press E to edit 3- Find the line with "linux" and append rw init =/bin/bash at the end of that line. 4-Press Ctrl X to boot Type in passwd Set your passwd and restart your PC.
Now here are a few lines on the screen which caught my attention: "bash: cannot set terminal process group (-1) inappropriate ioctl for d"
"bash: no job control in this shell"
"Kernel panic! _ not synching: attempted to kill init!"
A zillion thanks to anybody who comes up with a magic trick to retrieve this blinking password.
