    Supervisor password retrieval from Lenovo T550

    Hi all,

    I bought a few Lenovo laptops from a batch, most of them having a 10th/11th gen Intel CPU, and I found out they all have a supervisor password enabled. I understand you would need soldering or a programmer to disable the supervisor password on these newer units, which I would like to prevent if at all possible. I have the suspicion that all the laptops are using the same password, though.

    In the batch there is also an earlier T550. Is there a method available to retrieve the supervisor password from this model so it can be tested with the others?

      You can retrieve password from KBC using vertyanov BUT it's encrypted.

      If there happens to be E31 or ideapads or similar then you could get the password from there.

        Lenovo Yoga X380 22LH Supervisor Password removal

        Hey guys,

        have a laptop here that has a supervisor Password (dump in Attachements).
        Before i write the Serial NR.etc i wanted to say that strangely after flashing with 3 different Bios dumps and one from lenovos site
        the laptop works but everytime it wants me to type a supervisor password i never set.
        I thought the supervisor password is stuck in the ec bios but no it isn't either because after replacing the ec chip from one of another board it still has the supervisor password.
        Anyway i wanted to ask what of the two chips is the ec bios because on the left...

        Help needed in unlocking BIOS Supervisor password - Lenovo X1 Yoga 5th Gen
        by baaligoga
        Good day, everyone!

        I'm encountering an issue with my Lenovo X1 Yoga 5th Gen laptop related to the BIOS supervisor password. I'm seeking assistance and guidance from the knowledgeable members of this community in resolving this problem.

        I am no expert and cannot perform soldering or unsoldering of the chip from the board. Therefore, I attempted to use an EZP 2023 programmer with a clip to extract the BIOS bin file without removing the BIOS chip from the motherboard. The BIOS chip has the following letters imprinted on it: "Winbond 25Q80DVNIG 2026". I used the...

        Lenovo P16 Gen1 Supervisor Password from factory
        by Pusher
        Hi, I bought a Lenovo P16 Gen1 from a private seller. The box was still originally sealed but when I want to enter the BIOS a supervisor password is required. Is it possible that the notebook was delivered by Lenovo with a password? What can I do to reset the password? Unfortunately, I no longer have contact with the seller.

        What are my options for removing supervisor password from Lenovo Tiny M90q
        by Akira2007
        Hi all,

        I have a Lenovo TinyPC M90q Build Date 21/09 with a forgotten supervisor password. Set it after buying, so the kids couldn't mess anything up.
        Boot is locked to ssd only.
        Windows 10 is running from ssd.

        CMOS Reset with jumper didn't help.

        What are my options for removing/reseting supervisor password?
        Is it even possible?

        In "BIOS guides, methods, resources and tools" in section Lenovo are only Thinkpads, but I guess hardware would be comparable.
        so my only option would be "Flashing EC"...
