Reset Ubuntu user password | Ubuntu 20.04 | WSL2 | Windows 11

[@praveendubey5981]

some of the videos were too complicated where they were asking to install unnecessary applications to reset the password. but i reset my password while playing your video within 5 mins

[@Enkripsan]

Happy to hear ! Thank you 🙂

[@abhityagi6562]

for those the ubuntu2004 command fails try this --> ubuntu config --default-user root

Remove the version code and just type ububtu instead of ubuntu2004

how do I fix this?

this also shows up on mine, did you find a fix?

[@mohabmohamed6766]

I think because of the version of Ubuntu is different
