I forgot my iMac password

a long time ago I made a password for my iMac and now I can't remember it. It now wants me to enter the Mac password to unlock Mac "***'s iMac". It's not the Apple ID password, it's the password for the iMac computer that I named "***'s iMac.

After recovery, write down your PW and keep it safe. Or create some sort of login you can always remember.
