    Dell laptops store the password in EC. However, some generators exist depending on the code suffix.
    See: https://beta.bios-pw.org/ .If the website is offline try: https://web.archive.org/web/*/https://bios-pw.org/
    Note: All passwords must be entered with a US QWERTY Keyboard,you can use a USB one.
    Note: The 6FF1 suffix has a bug,use your service tag with the 1F5A or BF97 suffix instead,Example: 1234ABC-BF97 .
    Note: The list of examples does not include some other suffix codes that do work,such as E7A8 .
    Note: If the BF97 suffix does not work try it with the E7A8 suffix instead.
    Note: There is no publicly available 8FC8 generator available at the moment.
    The CTRL-ENTER-ENTER keystroke after the password only applied to laptops with a suffix (xxxxxxx-8FC8 for example), until Dell also required it in some laptops using System Disable 16-Hex algorithm, on which only the Password+ENTER was needed at first and then in some models you needed the CTRL-ENTER-ENTER to properly delete the system passwords, otherwise the password would remain SET upon the automatic system reboot if just doing Password+ENTER until the proper CTRL-ENTER-ENTER keystroke was performed in certain models.

    Thanks a lot

      Dell Latitude 7420 BIOS Unlock Gone Wrong
      by Jeff'sTech
      Hello everyone.

      I have come here with a rather specific question. I was given a Dell Latitude 7420 laptop with a busted screen, and wanted to see if I could refurbish it into my daily driver. I wanted to experiment and see if a 2-in-1 display would work as the chassis of the laptop and 2-in-1 7420 looked identical. I threw in the display and my hypothesis was correct, however, I was greeted with a locked BIOS and since I didn't know the password, I figured I'd try to unlock it somehow. I bought one of those POGO pin probe things for my CH341A programmer so I could read and make...
