How to Unlock Hard Disk Password?
Forgot the hard drive password and want to unlock the hard drive? Here we are going to discuss 4 possible solutions to unlock the hard drive that is password protected. Depending on how your hard drive is encrypted you can choose the solution. If your computer and hard drive support hard drive password and is locked, you can unlock them from the “Security” or “Password” section option in the BIOS screen. You can follow the steps of solution 1 in the video. In case if you’re hard drive is encrypted or locked with BitLocker then try the following solution 2. By default, Windows will automatically unlock your BitLocker drive when you sign in to your account but if auto-lock is turned off for BitLocker drive then, you have to manually unlock the hard drive password. Besides, another solution is to unlock the Bitlocker drive from the command prompt. Sometimes things would get a bit tricky if your computer won’t start or if you cannot access Control Panel for some reason. In this situation, the best method to unlock BitLocker encrypted drive is using the command prompt. Finally, if none of the previous solutions worked out then the last solution is to format the drive to disable the BitLocker, so that performs HDD password removal.
Anyway, the priority may be that you come to a professional technician for help, and some tell you it cannot be fixed, you need a brand new hard drive. While others ask for charges. If the budget is affordable, it is advised that you get someone else to fix the problem. It will be time and energy-efficient.
However, if you want to have a great trial to fix it by yourself, just follow the solutions above. After removing the password of the hard drive, you can have access to your hard drive data. If some data has been lost, you can recover data from the hard drive with hard drive data recovery software. Wondershare Recoverit official link: bit.ly/38mK58S

What if you don't have the disk password.
It's difficult. Try to remember our get the password from the previous owner, return it, or if it is saved in your bios (you don't need to enter the password to unlock the drive) then it may be possible to contact your motherboard manufacturer, but it may not be possible to remove it.
If you dont have the disk password you might need to crack the password with hashcat or take it to a pc repair center

Facts. Learn diskpart and its possibly the only way to delete a locked drive. Must be done from a usb with windows 10 or 8 installed, then go to 'repair my PC' in bottom left of the installation process screen when going to install windows from USB. Pull up command prompt. Type diskpart , enter. Type List volume, Enter . It should be volume 0, but its whatever volume has the amount of Gigabytes that the locked drive is on. If it's your SSD that is locked , and your SSD is 256 GB . It will say like Volume 0 , 237 GB . This is the one you have to now delete. Type Select Volume 0 ( or whatever volume number has the locked drive , aka your system ssd or hdd ) . After volume is selected, type Delete volume override , enter. Now your drive with the lock on it is deleted and you can reinstall windows from scratch. Hp cloud recovery is the best way to do so now if your computer supports it. Remember this only works in command prompt from computer startup in repair option. Override wont work in normal command prompt while computer is running .
Thank you so much for this video. It was absolutely INFURIATING trying to reset my laptop and it saying “Hard Drive is Locked”. This allowed me to unlock it, I couldn’t find this solution other than here.
Side note, I had to spam press the F2 key instead of the DEL key. I am using a Toshiba Satelite.
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!! The first solution worked perfectly for my Dell laptop.

so the simple problem is what you addressed 1st, but your answer, no intentional offense, was ridiculous. i forgot the password, so i obviously cant use it to change it to nothing, and id already know how to change it if i had created it. yours was the 1st video i watched (after 10 pointless 'not ad' video's, as usual, so yea maybe change your first problem/solution a bit, how to bypass it. just a suggestion
My drive isnt even in the disk management. I'm going crazy, i just need it unlocked and formatted... I bought a Dell G7 7790 laptop and the owner couldnt get it off too.

How recover diskpart in clean hard drive
Hi sir how are you ? Ok i watch your videos nice can you help me my lg extarnal hdd locked i will type the passwor it's not working i lost recovery key how can unlock hdd without deta lost can u help me sir
I have a locked drive and the bios asks for the old password that I have not been able to supply for I cannot remember it. I have tried countless passwords but none are accepted by the bios. This video has not addressed my circumstance as in the first segment you applied a password that was previously set and I am assuming it was the one issued for demonstration purposes.
May I ask you what did you do now? I have same issue
@@melikasfvt7923 The drive is sitting unused. All efforts have failed to access it. The computer that it came out of has also suffered to the extent that I had to instal Linux onto a usb drive to contimue using it as the sata circuitry on the motherboard seems to have died as well.
Thanks
I did like you said: pressed ENTER and after that F10 to save and now when it requires the passord does not accept any password: not the old one nor ENTER button working. What to do?
Hi there, thank you for your question! , Have you checked that Caps Lock and Num Lock are off, trying a different keyboard, or contacting the manufacturer's support for further assistance. If data is critical and you can't unlock the drive, professional data recovery services might be an option. Alternatively, for non-critical data, formatting the drive and reinstalling the OS could be a solution, but ensure you've backed up important files.
Why are you saying to enter the control pannel I'm sorry but I cannot my hardrive is locked and I have the 0x000021a error 😭
None of your methods work for me, just hype imo. What eventually worked for me was a simple windows admin commands diskpart, then clean.

Replacing SSD can bypass password problem? I have SSD password enabled which I cannot remove or no option in BIOS to change that password, If I replace my SSD will it ask me again to enter password?
Hi there, thank you for your question! By replacing the SSD with a new one it should generally bypass the password problem. By installing a fresh SSD, you can effectively eliminate any pre-existing password protection. However, it's essential to consider that if the password protection is implemented at a different level, such as the motherboard or BIOS, replacing the SSD alone may not resolve the password prompt.

What should i do ?
yh, but what do u do if u've forgotten the BIOS HDD p/w?
Hi there, thank you for your question! If you have forgotten the BIOS HDD password, there are several options you can try. Firstly, you can contact the manufacturer's customer support to see if they have a master password that can unlock the hard drive. Secondly, you can attempt to reset the CMOS by removing the battery from the motherboard or using a jumper on the motherboard. Thirdly, you can use a software tool to remove the password, although you should make sure to choose a reputable tool. Lastly, you can replace the hard drive, although this will erase all the data on the drive.

I installed a blank new ssd and my laptop is asking for an hdd password. I never set up a password or am able to boot into it
Hi there, thank you for your question! First, try entering the default password provided by the manufacturer. You can usually find this in the laptop's user manual or by searching online for your specific laptop model. If that doesn't work, you can try removing the SSD and booting up the laptop without it. This may allow you to access the BIOS settings where you can disable the HDD password. If neither of these options work, you may need to contact the laptop manufacturer for support. They may be able to provide you with additional options for resetting or removing the HDD password.

Hi there, thank you for your question!

Not true you dont need a new hdd
ok
I turn on PC nothen works just a screen with drivelock user password and I don't know it so I can use my pc😢
Hi there, thank you for your question. It seems like you are facing a hard drive lock (DriveLock) issue, which is a security feature in some computers to protect the data on the hard drive. To unlock the hard drive, you will need the DriveLock user password. If you don't have the password, here are some steps you can try:
1. Power off the computer and disconnect all peripherals like USB devices, printers, etc.
2. Power on the computer and immediately press the specific key to enter the BIOS setup (usually F2, F10, or Del key, depending on your PC model). Check your computer's user manual or the manufacturer's website for the correct key to enter the BIOS.
3. In the BIOS setup, navigate to the security settings, and look for the DriveLock or HDD password settings.
4. If you can find the option to reset or disable the DriveLock password, do so and save the changes. If not, you may need to contact the manufacturer's support for assistance, as they might have specific steps or tools to reset the password.
Please note that the process of resetting the DriveLock password may differ depending on the manufacturer and model of your computer. In some cases, the manufacturer may require proof of ownership before providing assistance.
If you are unable to reset the DriveLock password, you may need to replace the hard drive. However, replacing the hard drive will result in losing all the data stored on it.
To avoid such issues in the future, consider keeping a record of your passwords in a secure place and create a backup of your important files regularly.
