I did up to step 4 ( password reset) and give me the following

RID: 01f4, Username: <Administrator>*disabled or locked*
RID: 0efb, Username: <familyt>, *disabled or locked*
.... the others are similar to the link.

what shall I do next? Do I type in "Administrator" and hit enter? And
when
prompted for new password, type * ?

Choose the Administrator and IIRC it will give you the opportunity to
enable it and then change the password.
