Ubuntu bash windows forgot password

$

I forgot the password for the Ubuntu bash on windows. I tried to reset it by following the instructions https://www.top-password.com/blog/forgot-linux-bash-password-in-windows-10/ but the windows cmd threw the following:

'ubuntu' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I tried with both, ubuntu and ubuntu1806/04. I also tried passwd root but it says "you may not view or modifz password" I have tried wsl -u root but it says wsl it's not install. If I try to install it I need to input the password I also tried to uninstall the ubuntu bash, when I click unistall on the tasks bar, it redirects me to the control panel option for unistalling programs, but it is not shown on the list to unistall it. How can I reset the password?
