I tried for everything in the world wide web to remove the bios password of this acer netbook, with no success, but then i found this video.With the first method it only took less than 10 min! Thank you soo much! Liked and subscribed
If you cannot format the USB because it says write protected and tried everything: this worked for me:
Step1 - type 'list disk'
Step2 - type 'select disk *' (* you may need to replace * with the drive letter of your media)
Step3 - type "convert mbr"
If it throws an error say unconvertable etc, type clean , then repeat Step 3
Where should I write list disk
Good! It worked for me, thanx!
@@punkfank7096 command line, open initial menu, in search write down CMD, then a command line will open.
@@ruddyxmax Thx it worked
thank you
Thanks, saved me 20$. If you cannot select bootable device by pressing F12, just unplug HDD, then it will boot from flash.
i tried and still not knowing the usb flash drive :/
@@breezefps You might have an EFI system which is unfortunately a bad thing for you.
I spent a whole day on this until I saw your tip. Thanks a lot.
The first method worked flawlessly for me, on my vintage travelmate C100. Saved me from opening it up to reset the bios. Thank you so much.
Thanks for this, the tutorial on the clear password utility was clutch. I had an acer aspire 5552 without boot device options, but noticed if you take out the HDD, it boots from usb! The utility worked, and I have access to the bios. So anyone who doesn't have usb boot options, try removing the hdd, maybe you'll get lucky like me.
are you sure it is safe to remove HDD for the sake of no bootable device problem? it doesn't work anyways
Excellent vid. Based on the positive feedback in the comments regarding the first method I'd like to add a tip. In order to boot from the flash you have to select the flash drive from the boot menu at startup. On some laptops it may ask for a password at this point as well. All is not lost. In order to force the system to boot from the flash, simply disconnect your internal hard drive first (make sure your laptop is powered down before disconnecting the hard drive), then boot with the flash drive plugged in. It should then boot from the flash and you can follow on with the tutorial.
Also the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool may not work in Windows 10 for some flash drives. You can try another flash drive or do the format process on an older version of Windows for example: Windows XP.
Thanks for the tip! Only with your video I was able to remove the password from an Acer 5733 notebook. I used the jumper next to the RAM memory. I had tried numerous software installed by Windows, without success.
Every time I trie to format the flash disk and create a DOS startup disk, I get an error: Device Media is write-protected. The flashdrive is for sure not write-protected. What's wrong with this? May you can give an advice?
Use Rufus to install FreeDOS instead, and just install it that way.
Copy the folder to the desktop and rename it by just deleting some of the letters. Done.
@@IronieLiestDuNie Thanks! That worked perfectly to resolve the issue for me.
search cmd -> write "List Disk".
Then see which disk number is the disk you want to format and fix it.
if number 1 is your usb disk: then just write "SELECT DISK 1"
write "CLEAN"
then write "Convert GPT"
Then write "Convert MBR"
Now try again it should work.
@@cycleoflearning881 Thanks, I did these steps as well as renaming my folder simply "MS" on my desktop. And it worked
Thank's, it worked on acer 5742G : I linked together every pin I found behind the ram with my screwdriver and no more bios password !!

This is password
Thanks a lot. Did the reset right now on my old acer aspire one (all my 'usual' passwords didn't work...). I used the software-version - straightforward. Really helpful, thanks again.
Bro I can't believe it, THANK you, it worked perfectly, I thought I'd never get my laptop to work again
you are great. I have seen too many videos about password through software but nothing work. your method work. Thanks you so much.
Hey man thank you. Before your video I show many videos but problem dose not resolved from that. When show show your video and follow the steps problem solved. Thanks again man....
Please also upload a video on How to clear HDD/SDD password.
thanks you so much brother ...step 1 really work for me ...other step not working ...unplug hard drive from laptop and place your USB ...sure working for who can't to boot device
THIS IS THE MOST HELPFUL VIDEO IN HISTORY!!!
No! It only works for CERTAIN Acers. And yes, then you can cheer. But sometimes the previous owner blocked booting from usb and cd. Thank God modern boot methods escape this blocking, so I can install Windows 10 or the newest Linux Mint. But installing a second operating system turns into a nightmare.
Do you see? Never forget your password for a modern Acer. Nice laptops, why not, but the combination of a forgotten password and restrictions on bootable devices, well, you should think twice about the risks.
thanks bro..option one worked perfect..for those who cant choose boot options..just unplug your harddrive and computer will boot from flashdrive automatically
tnx man, the clnpwd program did the job. Removing battery did not work. And good vid, easy to follow toturial and fast, certainly appreciated.
what do you do if your not lucky, it asking for password when i try to change boot device.
"if you lucky" :(
Thank you brother, I have successfully remove BIOS password from my Acer laptop by using Software.
Thanks mate, you're an absolute legend! Removed my long forgotten password easily!! Definitely not thanks to Acer who won't help, or Microsoft, which won't let me use my Acer Empowering Tech anymore!
Hey, how did u do that.. I cant boot using pendrive
Hello Vinay, I just created a windows bootable usb, downloaded the file provided in the link and put that also on the usb, then used the command just as described in the video. Also, make sure you hold F2 key pressed while turning laptop on. Then you should be asked where do you want to boot from and choose USB.
Just here to confirm that the screwdriver method to reset the clock also works.
I don't have a sample size to be able to say how safe it is though.
Great!! The first way worked fine for me and my Acer 5551.. So much thanks!!!
Fake video
@@sakilunbegam184 why??
excellent video with step 1 remove the password without disassembling
Thank you. You helped me a lot. Those who say that this video did not serve you is ignorant
after 9 years Thanks!
MAN THANKYOU! YOU ARE THE ONE! THE JUMPING METHOD WORKS WELL FOR ME!
first method worked for me, thank you . i needed to first clear write protection of the USB Press
"Win + R" > Type: cmd and hit Enter to open "Command Prompt".
2. Type: "diskpart" without quotes and hit Enter to open diskpart.
3. Type: "list disk" (again no quotes) and hit Enter.
Remember the disk number of your write protected USB, SD or hard drive in Windows PC.
4. Type: "select disk (whatever number your disk is)" without the quotes ( the number of your write protected USB/SD/hard drive) and hit Enter.
5. Type: "attributes disk clear readonly" without quotes and hit Enter to disable write protection on the storage device.
6. Close the diskpart window once the write protection removing process is finished.

Good evening sir,
I put the BitLocker password in my laptop "Acer A1-431" model two years ago in the "D" drive, which I now want to delete permanently but am not able to remove, I watched many videos from RUclips but removing the Bitlocker But could not remove. And in Bios also, Secure Password is telling the standard, due to which I am unable to install new windows in that laptop, please help me. Thanks dinesh kumar from india
Sir when I was formatting the drive it is coming as the device is write protected. What to do sir please respond to my comment
I have the same problem
you may have an opened window that is pointing to the folder into the Pendrive.
If you cannot format the USB because it says write protected and tried everything: this worked for me:
Step1 - type 'list disk'
Step2 - type 'select disk *' (* you may need to replace * with the drive letter of your media)
Step3 - type "convert mbr"
If it throws an error say unconvertable etc, type clean , then repeat Step 3

Acer E1-571 working ! Thank you !
Which method you used?
What method you used?
Doesn't function with UEFI-only systems, and obviously can't enter the bios to change to legacy mode without the password.. so yeah.
Thank you very much... I have Acer Aspire E1-571G and for me work great second method (cmos pin). Thanks....
Congratulations for this video!! In this video, I learn how reset the BIOS by Jumper in a notebook. I only knew do it in CPU. Congratulations!!! My problem is fixed!! More one subscribe and more one like!!
*thanks, not congratulations
Please what's the method in CPU you were talking about??
Does this work on the Acer Predator Gaming Laptops?
Excellent Lesson. GOD BLESS.
This worked for me, short the pins under the RAM. "Acer Aspire 4330-2403". CPU from 2006. Mainboard from 2008.
Desde Argentina Mil gracias!!!! Sos un Grosso!!!!
Thanks, the jumper method worked for me
Thank you so much, you're the MEN !!! It worked :)
Your data loose or not?
It works on Acer Aspire 5750G by short between pins under ram memory. Thanks m8 !
failed to format the device ??????? what should I do
use rufus
In rufus it asks to select the file (not a folder) like in the video. What file should I choose or is that even an option? The tool in video to format and make the USB doesn't work as well: "Failed to format"
Nick Landum use Rufus to make botable USB device with freedos.
I have that in my settings; when I go to choose the actual "Folder" as it says in the video using the HP tool, however it goes to open the folder instead of choosing the folder.
either format the usb drive using ntfs manully then try hp disk tool or delete the partition using tool like easeus partition master free then try hp tool. Both worked for me
Damn what computer version are you using 1998 Windows? Damn this looks old.
Hi, the first method worked! Thanks!
the problem here sir is you cant install the clnpwd because my OS was corrupted.

2nd method worked for me, thanks :)
what would happen if the boot order menu was locked? crap this
If you remove the hard drive the boot order list should look for bootable devices. Now it will boot to your USB drive.
@@Tony-Waldron that is a point, but what if ''boot from usb'' option was disabled in bios ?
@@fredmason4803 Disconnect the hard drive. Your system will look for any other bootable device.
Thank you. It worked on the Acer e15.
i have hard disk locked..so the usb is not apearred in boot menu
