dpkg was interrupted - hamka - 12-08-2022

Hi, Lighters! I lost my installation password, but finally managed to change it with the help of the excellent Help Manual. There are almost 400 pending updates (ouch) but when I tried to update I got this message.  Please help?

Open a terminal by pressing 'ctrl' 'alt' and 't' together

In the window type

Code:
sudo dpkg --configure -a
followed by return/enter

Then enter your password and return
