As the title suggested I have lost my Linux Instance password.
I have already accessed it via putty and it's ppk key.

As far as I know, there is no passwords set by default. Important is that you try to login with the correct user.
Depending on which AMI you selected this can vary. ec2-user
for AWS Linux, ubuntu
for Ubuntu, centos
for CentOS.
Actually, it's Linux Instance, and I forget the password as it was set by another person, and I want to recover the password now.

Your screenshot says "server refused our key". That means you don't have the private key for your instance. I'm not sure there is a password.
You can try something like this to mount the volume then reset the password / create a new key.

If you feel that you cannot get access to system. You can create AMI of your instance, create a volume of that AMI and then create a new instance and mount that volume on new instance and recover the data.
