Hello. I have a Kindle Touch. I bought it secondhand with a password. No matter what method I tried, I couldn't reset it.

1) I tried entering 111222777 in the password field, but it didn't work. It asked for a password again when it booted.

2) I held down the power button for 40 seconds, and it restarted, and then asked for a password again when it booted.

When I connect it to my computer, it shows up as "Kindle Internal Storage" in Device Manager. When I enable the "Show hidden folders" option on my computer, I get an error saying I can't access the drive.

Can you please help me with this? I have Linux, Windows, and Mac operating systems.
