I could not believe it until I saw it. This method worked to release the BIOS lock that was present on the Latitude E6410 I purchased from a University salvage store. With the BIOS released I could continue with the rebuild and upgrades. Update: the machine is now running Win 10 Pro-64 bit. Thank you so much sir as Dell and the University's IT department were as helpful as a space heater in hell.
Thank you - works fine! One additional information for nationonal keyboards: In case of national keyboards please consider that the keyboard on boot time is set to EN-US! In my case I have a German keyboard in German and my unlock code contained a 'y'. On German keyboards the key for 'z' and 'y' are changed. So I had to input my unlock key with a 'z' instead of a 'y'
ich war schon enttäuscht und dachte es klappt bei mir nicht, dann bin ich auf deinen kommentar gestoßen und siehe da, läuft! danke! auf die idee bin ich nicht gekommen! 😅👍
Hatte neben dem y auch das Zeichen [ im Passwort. Musste erstmal schauen, wo sich das auf der amerikanischen Tastatur befindet. Danach hat es geklappt.
works like a charm ! Thank you sir ! Note that the keyboard mapping in the BIOS settings is set to QWERTY, so if you are on an AZERTY keyboard (FR), find the good keys :)
Ok just used german keyboard and the key 'ü' for '['. And at the end CTRL ENTER instead of just ENTER or OK. Worked like a charm on an Optiplex 7060 Micro. Thank you very mich guys.
At first glance I really thought to myself "there's no way it's that easy to fix" becuase I had literally tried everything else. But low and behold, it actually did work. Thank you very much!
I forgot my password after I set it years ago but now I need it to upgrade my hard drive to a SSD. This method 100% removed my old bios PW and allowed to to set a new one. Thank you
Worked for Dell Latitude 3190 2-in-1 (BF97). Make sure to press Ctrl+Enter (not Enter) after typing the generated password into BIOS. Thank you so very much!
Thank you. This worked. If you are having trouble, here are some things I went through: - I think it is IMPERATIVE that you press CTRL + ENTER - If you have what seems like a long code, it is not. Each line is a code to enter. - It is case sensitive
Fantastico! Liguei inumeras vezes ao suporte da Dell, tanto no Brasil quanto nos USA, nada resolvido. O último, no Brasil, simplesmente disse que eu procurasse uma assistencia tecnica de confiança ou comprasse uma nova placa-mãe. Esse site funcionou perfeitamente!!! Obrigado, meu!
Absolutely Worked 100% greatTutorial. Appreciate it very much. Unlocked a DELL Latitude e6430 which i aquired second hand because the machine model has a sentimental value to me being that it was the machine I learned just about everything about ACPI Programming etc. So when I got it I was like damn but now im in there thanks to this Tutorial. Peace!
And of course on a lot of Dell Laptops for example, you can't reset by opening it up. Even if you disconnect the CMOS battery AND the main battery and leave it for a day AND hold down the power button for 20 seconds to drain residual power... After all that, the damn password is still set lol This worked a treat :)
This was great! I just got a lot of laptops from an org for the class I teach & they had them password protected so I couldn't reimage them. But this just worked on one of them so I am assuming it will work on all of them!
Thank you som much! I have a desktop Dell 7020 and it would not boot from my SSD unlock I looked into the BIOs and saw it was locked. By following your tip I got it to boot. Btw it was set in legacy which it won't boot it from until I unlocked it and set it to UEFI. Thank you again!
Worked for me! Had to do it about five times because my 0 (zero) looked like am "O" and didn't have a line through it... Booted from USB to put Linux on old Dell.
It really works! I helped me to recover but what if you want to setup an admin password for company laptops, the security layer in this case would easy for someone that is tech habbit??
I Kept thinking this was some sort of scam. But here I am with a bios unlocked Dell 7710 laptop. THIS WORKS JUST KNOW EVERYTHING IS CASE SENSITIVE! yanks sao mash!
hi , Nice !! it's ok on my DELL latitudes E5520 .!! Be careful, when you type the key in the bios, the keyboard is in QWERTY for the french user !! Thk !!
@@bonjo7113 yes, I bought a chip reprogrammer on Amazon for $20. Have to copy the firmware off the bios chip onto a PC, edit the firmware with a hex editor, then copy it back. It's actually pretty easy to do.
TRIED A COUPLE TIMES AND A FEW OTHER WEBSITES DIDN'T WORK. READ INFO ON ANOTHER WEBSITE AND REALIZED MY STEPS WERE WRONG. BASICALLY YOU HAVE TO PRESS THE BUTTONS IN A SEQUENCE OF HOLDING CONTROL DOWN, THEN PRESSING ENTER TWICE.

Great insight! Thanks!!
I need to use some special characters like [. So which keaboard (I have here a QWERTZ german one) should be used for that, an US one?

As for me it seems not working,
Werd. I tried first without the Control button since I jumped ahead and it totally worked once I noticed that it was needed for my Latitude.
@@yostix hey I followed every step but when I got to the admin password it say admin password is set and I forget the password. Help
Worked perfectly! Was taking the pc apart and nothing worked, but CTRL+Enter after typing the password worked! Thank you so much!

3 days before 2025 and still works appreciate you my guy🤝🏿
Dell 5490 worked on the second password. Thanks allot great work
Worked for Dell Latitude 3190 2-in-1 (BF97). Make sure to press Ctrl+Enter (not Enter) after typing the generated password into BIOS.
Thank you so very much!
This didn't work for me, same laptop but no code generated. Any ideas?
Mine didn't work either,
Wow! It worked! Thank you so much man you the best! Just hold CTRL button and press the Enter button on the end. Fantastic
Thank you. This worked. If you are having trouble, here are some things I went through:
- I think it is IMPERATIVE that you press CTRL + ENTER
- If you have what seems like a long code, it is not. Each line is a code to enter.
- It is case sensitive
CTRL left or right ?
Why not just click the OK button?
This worked great on my Dell Precision 7520. It was definitely case sensitive and I had to hold CTRL while pressing enter like the website mentions.
dude thank you so much this literally saved me opening up the inside my laptop and looking for the password reset jumper (whatever that is)
on a E7470 I removed the battery and the bios battery and still it did not reset the admin password, but the approach in this vide worked just fine

Thank you for posting this ! Worked perfectly on a thrift store Dell PC. You Rock!

Thank you so much, I had a Dell Latitude Rugged that was locked up. After entering the password, I held CTRL and hit ENTER and it patched me through!

DUDE This freaking worked. You rule. Thank you so much for making this video.
Works in Dell Latitude. Second (long) pass works, ctrl+enter needed. Thank You. I no need to desolder bios chip!
What to do when it's only shows old Serial number?
Thank you som much! I have a desktop Dell 7020 and it would not boot from my SSD unlock I looked into the BIOs and saw it was locked. By following your tip I got it to boot. Btw it was set in legacy which it won't boot it from until I unlocked it and set it to UEFI. Thank you again!
Thanks!
Thanks a lot bro 😊
just tried and it worked! Thanks!
Perfect, works with Dell Precision M4800 Notebook, if you have a QWERTZ, you need to change Z+Y ... (with CTRL+Enter) ... and it works
Worked great for me on a Dell E5470. Thanks so much!
Worked like a charm. I was finally able to re-set my admin password and update my BIOS. Thanks so much.
do you have any update vidoes for reseting bios under 8fc8 dell brand
Did you find anything on this? I have an 8FC8 too that I can not unlock. Replacing the SSD throws a 2000-0151 error code.
Çözüm Buldunuz mu ?
Brilliant, do press Ctrl and Enter simultaneously
Worked for me! Had to do it about five times because my 0 (zero) looked like am "O" and didn't have a line through it... Booted from USB to put Linux on old Dell.
After 3 hours I found this video. It works. Thank you very much.
