Reset Zorin without password

[Katcody9]

So I got the Acer Nitro AN515-54 series and it is locked with an unknown password and user. Menu says Zorin, advanced options for Zorin, and system set up (which is locked with password).
Advanced options include two Zorin, with Linux generic and two recovery mode options.
Upon recovery it loads essential drivers, runs scripts, mounts root file system, and then it gives up waiting for root file system with common problems Boot args, check rootdelay, missing modules.

I have no idea how to access the computer, any advice?

if it is the bios you will have to remove the cmos battery from the motherboard

I thought you cannot even initiate booting sequence if the machine has boot password. If the user/password in for Zorin OS, the quickest solution is to ask user/password to the previous owner (or whoever installed Zorin on it).
