Hey guys. I’m new to Linux and I’m running Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon. Yesterday I have f*cked up. I was testing things in users and geve myself standart priveledges insted of Admin ones I had from beggining and then restarted PC. I then tried log back into users tab and change myself back to Admin but even tho the password is correct It says that it is not. /So at this point there is only one user in PC who has standart privliedges and no Admin./ I then tried to access root via terminal and this time It said that I don’t have permision to do that. And this is where I’m at right now. Please help get back my admin privliedges.
Edit: Issue is fixed. I started GRUB and changed my password which fixed the whole issue. Once again big Thank you to everyone who gave me tips and also big thank you to the guy who started posting about rowing machines. You all wonderful.
I have fucked up somewhat like you in the past and needed to repair my system. In Linux you can boot into runlevel 1, single-user mode, where you are effectively root and can remove the root password, the re-enter one after you boot in the usual runlevel again. See these links: https://www.debuntu.org/how-to-recover-root-password-under-linux-with-single-user-mode/ https://www.debuntu.org/how-to-change-boot-runlevel-with-grub2/ https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/run-levels-linux/
Runlevels don’t exist on systemd.
multi-user.targetis what you want.Will try and give you feedback once I’m home. Thanks man.
