Thank you for the clarifying , is there a possibility to remove password command prompt ?like i tried to get in CMD(files read/write protected ofcourse) which it succeed and also in bios only this' supervisor password' shows up so my question: is it possible to flash lets say some linux distro without any bugs after? i guess trying a master master key for this model(with Mdm)wouldnt work? so what are my possibilitys ? greatly appreciated...

Hello all, is there any difference from editing bios in order to unlok pssword from a Lenovo T16 Gen3 (intel) procedure as above? is same steps? thanks in advance
