Got an HP 13-aw0023dx here and the owner set and then forgot the BIOS power on password
For giggles, I tried a BIOS dump someone had posted in an earlier thread for a corrupted BIOS on this same model, which apparently came from a similar but not exactly matching model, but the system doesn't even post with that. I also tried the HP emergency BIOS recovery option (Winkey + B + power) but while it does go through the motions and reflash the BIOS, at the end it still prompts for power on password.
I've attached a dump of the BIOS.
