    Lost/Damaged BIOS password on Lenovo ThinkPad T16 Gen 1

    Hi, the password set on a ThinkPad T16 Gen 1 doesn't seem to work anymore or was forgotten. Is there any way to possibly remove/reset it?

    It has tamper protection too, so removing the back'll force the BIOS password prompt unless someone knows for sure, I don't want to open the machine.

      BIOS password on newer Lenovo's is in the embedded controller, not the BIOS chip. There are some removal methods, but it depends on what EC is on the board.

      You'll will have to open it and determine what motherboard is fitted, or what EC is installed and go from there.
