| Forgetting login passwords is the worst. Whether it's your social media account or your laptop/computer, the password can be reset or removed. |
|
| When it comes to BIOS passwords, resetting or removing is not easy. Sometimes there's no other choice but to replace the motherboard, which is very expensive. |
|
| There's a detailed article about how to remove BIOS passwords for may different situations, but I'll focus on Acer laptops. |
| Even if you don't have an Acer laptop, you should still read the article. It could be very useful. |
| Forgetting password can be frustrating regardless on an account or log in. Usually it can be reset or changed at ease; however, that isn't the case with BIOS password. |
| As an owner of an Acer laptop, back then I didn't have any experience with BIOS security and I made my own password so nobody can access the boot menu. Fortunately, it wasn't set while booting or it would have been a problem. |
| Therefore, this guide is only recommended for Acer owners that have already set up BIOS password on BIOS menu entry only. Any other laptop is not advised, but feel free to get it a try. |
