Hi guys, today we’ll discuss about how to remove the system BIOS password from laptop, even if you have forgot the password.
Although, you can reset the bios password through resetting BIOS physically (reset jumper), but it is not that easy job. You may also reset BIOS password in the bios settings, but you may be stuck on the same “Enter administrator password or power on password” or “Enter System password” screen.
Here, we are going to give you the step-by-step guide, how you can remove bios forgotten password. We are going to use the laptop manufacturer’s backdoor password (Default Password) to remove the unknown bios password. This trick will work only on branded laptop / desktop like HP, Dell, Acer, Sony, Lenovo, Asus, Toshiba, etc. This trick won’t work for assembled computers.
Follow the following steps.
How to Remove BIOS Password from laptop [Steps]
- First of all, start your computer laptop/desktop. It’ll be asking for the “administrator password or power on password.”
- Enter the wrong password at least 3-4 times, until you get the “System Disabled” message with the error code. In my case, the system disabled code is “48377343” as you can see in the screenshot below.
- Note down the error code. We’ll use this code to get the default password of your laptop from the Internet. To access the Internet, you may use another device with Internet connectivity.
- Use another device and open this website: https://bios-pw.org/. You’ll get a page in front of you which is asking for your laptop’s “System Disabled Code” (48377343).
- Here, you need to enter the “System Disabled Code” (48377343) and then click on “Get password” button.
- After clicking on the “Get password” button, you’ll get the search result, which is showing you the default passwords list of your laptop hardware. Might be you’ll get more than one result, so choose the one password according to your laptop manufacturer. In my case, my laptop brand is HP, so its default password is “57055985” in front of that.
- So, we just have got the default/backdoor password (57055985) of our notebook from a website. Now restart your computer, and you’ll get the same screen “enter administrator password or power on password”. Enter the password that you have got from the www.bios-pw.org website. In my case, it is: 57055985.
- And then press the enter button. It worked for me. Hopefully, it will work for you as well.
- Restart your computer one more time. This time, it won’t ask you for the system BIOS password anymore.
That’s it. Enjoy the trick
