I have a server at Hetzner but today I tried to login into root account but I realize that I forgot root password. How to reset passwork for myself or do I need to contact Hetzner for this?

you should have access to a panel like SolusVm and you can reset your password from there

I am not sure whether Hetzner can help you on this. You may find the following links useful to recover root access.

You will need to activate the rescue mode and then run passwd command to reset root password.
