Hello Friends i cant break the boot of the switch i follow the procedure in the power cycling step 1 i try with CTRL ] but i cant stop the boot and enter to the boot loader prompt and change the password 

 

                                    - Your actions are not detailed enough described , check https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/sw/password_recovery/b_nx_os_pwr/nx_os_pw.html#47798 ,  you can for instance only use CTRL ]  on switch login: prompt. Provide screenshots or console logs of what is being tried and what is happening before that (too).

from doc. I share 
"If you are using a non-U.S. keymap, the key sequence that you need to press to generate the break sequence may not work. In this case, we recommend that you set your terminal to a U.S. keymap. You can enter Ctrl-C instead of Ctrl-]
(right square bracket) due to keyboard mapping."
