How Do I Remove a BIOS or UEFI Password?

Описание: ✔️ A BIOS password provides a surprising amount of security on a computer -- so much that if the password is lost, chances for recovery are slim.

✔️ Removing a BIOS/UEFI password
BIOS passwords protect your system from unauthorized changes and unauthorized booting. In most cases, you need to know the password to change the password. If you don’t know that password, some motherboards may have a physical reset switch that will reset a BIOS to its initial state without the password; some require that you ship the motherboard back to the factory; and some cannot be changed at all.
