The question is open to interpretation of " account is locked "


1 - If your Apple ID is locked or disabled


2 - https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid


3 - Set a firmware password on your Mac


4 - If you forgot your Mac login password


5 - Verify User Account as True or False


Copy and paste the below command without the Quotations Marks


" id -Gn username | grep -q -w admin && echo True || echo False "


If the $USER  is admin then True will result.
