I have an old MacBook Pro - no idea year, serial number is illegible (so tiny) and i can only get to the password option, and dont remember my password -

How do I get my MacBook pro without knowing my password - it doesn’t give me an option to change my password - it’s very old

Forgot password MacBook Hello, got a late 2009 or mid 2010 MacBook that I haven’t used for at least 7 years. Turns on fine but can’t access since I don’t remember password. Can’t get serial number either (threw away packaging and it is not engraved on the outside). Any suggestions? I don’t mind erasing if necessary
