    The file is /etc/shadow, there will be lines like:
     
    user:asdfasdfasdf$$$$asdfasdfasdfsadfasdf::17178:0:98899:7:::
    anotheruser:asdfasdfasdf$$$$asdfasdfasdfsadfasdf::17178:0:98899:7:::
    systemd-timesync:*:17199:0:94499:7:::
    systemd-bus-proxy:*:17199:0:94449:7:::
    messagebus:*:17199:0:93459:7:::
    ntp:*:17199:0:23499:7:::
    (...)
    You must remove the second field as:
    user::17178:0:98899:7:::
     
    Then boot, press enter on prompt for password and once login in, change password with passwd. 
     
    Make a copy in case things go south.
