How to reset password in the kali system. - night4pe - Jul 6, 2023

I have forgot user password in the kali.

I found the solution in the some site.

I introduce that right way below.

  1. in the boot menu,select a option 'Advanced boot....'

  2. then click the 'E'
    it will display the window that edit a booting mode.

  3. in the line begin to 'linux', replace 'ro' to 'rw' with 'ro single'

  4. in the end line,insert followings
    init=/bin/bash

  5. please click Fn+F10.

  6. boot into '...Recover'

  7. after login with root account,execute 'passwd'



I hope this helps.

Thank you for reading my post until the end.

That will get you into single-user mode, or you can boot into recovery mode.

VM users, don't forget your snapshots. If you fuck up something it's easier to go back.
