    ThinkPad E14 Gen 3 AMD NM-D481 Password

    I have attempted to remove the BIOS password from an E14 Gen 3 AMD:
    System Unit Serial Number PF30PWYB
    Machine type model 20YDS03T00
    Based on my experience with Intel machines and assuming that the password is stored in the EC, I made a backup of the EC, erased the EC and restored the backup.
    Unfortunately the password is still there.
    Can someone please tell me the correct way to do this?
    Attached is the backup of the EC.​

        Should I buy a Lenovo Thinkpad E495 with bios password?
        by RMDUiFT
        Good day. I apologize if I posted this in the wrong topic. I saw somebody selling a Thinkpad E495 with a Ryzen 3500U CPU near me. In the pictures the laptop is running windows 10. I contacted the seller and asked a few questions about upgradability and if it has a bios password on it. He confirmed it has a bios password. I searched through the forum, I found a guide regarding removing the bios password using the autopatcher, I also found a thread with the e495 where people requested help with unlocking the bios password.

        I have a few questions:

        Thinkpad P14s Gen 4, BIOS Supervisor Password
        by badzymandiaz
        I have a laptop that was purchased second-hand, and I am able to boot Windows on and extract the BIOS dump (ONLY the BIOS region, I was unable to dump anything else due to an FCERR I received trying to dump the other regions) and use normally. However, because the BIOS is locked with a supervisor password, I am unable to use anything else except for Windows, and it has also disabled some hardware features of the laptop itself, such as the fingerprinting module, etc. that I really do wish to use.

        I have been digging around for nearly 2 weeks trying to find any mention of the same model...

        ThinkPad X13 Yoga Gen 1 (Type 20SX) Password Removal
        by zrb1qyvtv
        Hi,

        I didn't find a request for this specific SKU yet, but... I need the bios password removed from it.
        (The tamper protection triggered randomly one day)

        Here's as much info as possible about it:
        - ThinkPad X13 Yoga Gen 1 (Type 20SX)
        - SN R90YLACQ
        - Model 20SX002XGE
        - CPU 10th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-10510U
        - Lenovo-Support page for convenience

        And here are what should be valid EC and BIOS dumps (from an external reader)...
