    You've not provided any product/release details; but I'd usually boot a *live* OS that I mostly knew how to operate, then `mount` the internal drive of the device & explore... If encryption is detected, it'll be much harder, but you've provided no specifics. You maybe able to change the password directly from the *live* media (*just as you would a windows device too*!) but again you may not. The *live* media is an OS on thumb-drive, so you're using the machine's internal drive as a secondary disk & by-passing *most* security on that drive.. (*this isn't Ubuntu specific*) – guiverc Jun 07 '22 at 03:51
