How to Reset Four Most Common Password of Lenovo ThinkPad Computer?

Lenovo ThinkPad Laptop password reset or recovery solution varies depending on which password you have forgotten. The hassle of password reset process will range from simple inconvenience to total valuable data loss. For this, we have collected the most used Lenovo Computer password lost troubles and satisfactory solutions for you.



Types of passwords for Lenovo ThinkPad Laptop

There are four kinds of passwords we will talk about Lenovo ThinkPad computer and the password reset solutions:

  • 1> Windows logon Password (Administrator, Domain and User account)
  • 2> Supervisor Password
  • 3> Hard Disk Password (Master and User)
  • 4> Power-On Password


1>Windows logon Password for Lenovo ThinkPad
Windows logon password for Lenovo ThinkPad is used to keep personal information private and we are always create some administrator or user accounts on Windows 7/Vista/XP PC and also domain admin or AD accounts on Windows Server 2000/2003(R2)/2008(R2). It will be a big besetment when you lost or misplaced the passwords of those accounts. However, with some easily password recovery ways, it is possible to re-access your Windows system with no damage of the data.

2> Supervisor Password for Lenovo ThinkPad
A Supervisor password protects the system infor stored in the BIOS. The user must input the Supervisor password in order to get access to the ThinkPad BIOS Setup Utility in order to alter the system configuration. If the Supervisor password is lost there is no way to recover it to enter the BIOS configuration.

Reset Forgotten Supervisor Password

A forgotten Supervisor password will prevent access to the ThinkPad BIOS setup utility. To get access, you need reset the BIOS password with some solutions like locate the jumpers or solder beads, or just contact the computer manufacturer or motherboard manufacturer for resetting forgotten Supervisor password.

3> Hard Disk Password for ThinkPad ThinkPad
There are two Hard drive passwords: a user Hard drive password for the user and a master Hard drive password for the system administrator. The administrator can use the master password to get access to the hard drive even if a user has changed the user Hard drive password.

Reset Forgotten Hard Drive Password

If the user's Hard drive password has been forgotten, check whether a master Hard drive password has been set. If it has, it can be used for access to the hard drive. If no master Hard drive password is available, or if the administrator forgets the master Hard drive password, then the hard drive must be replaced. For this instance you just need ask help from your computer manufacturer to reset forgotten HDD password.

4> Power-On Password for Lenovo ThinkPad
An Lenovo ThinkPad Power-on password protects the system from being powered on by an unauthorized person. When it has been set, a prompt will appear during the system start up, and the Power-on password must be entered before an operating system can be booted.

Reset Forgotten Power-on Password

If the Power-on password is forgotten and the Supervisor password is known, simply go into the ThinkPad BIOS setup utility and reset the Power-on password, otherwise try the following:

1.Power off the Lenovo ThinkPad computer

2.Remove the battery pack

3.Remove the backup battery

4.Please power on the computer and wait till the POST ends. If the password prompt does not appear then the Power-on password has been reset.

5.Reinstall the backup battery and the battery pack.


Note: Some ThinkPad systems have the ability to reset the Power-on passwords in the ThinkPad BIOS setup utility if a Supervisor password has been set.

secure my connection secure my connection - I agree with Link's second post. Security is a personal sticky issue and possibly not the first service you should introduce yourself at the door. I'd suggest also the Back to School "In-Home" Computer tuneup (it's such a pain to take your computer in for servicing) and promise that they would see a smoother and faster computer. You can hand them a 2 page report on the benefits of having a computer tuneup -> this is critical. After you are gone this is the only piece of information that they will have to begin trusting you and want to have you in their home. You can sneak at the bottom of the report the benefits of having a wireless connection and the importance of Securing it. finish off the report with two dotted rounded rectangle boxes beside each other. One has a free Computer tune up assessment and the other a free wireless network security test. If they take you up on either you can test for the other. You now have two sources of possible income.

Re: Wordpress Password & Username Recovery Re: Wordpress Password & Username Recovery - Password protection continues to be one of the most integral parts of security in the modern age. Whether you're accessing your home through a keypad, your car through a keypad, your computer through finger print, or your files through alphanumeric passwords - remembering and ensuring access too all of these passwords is troubling. I think the future will see everything consolidate into one 'identification card', good for everything and anything you do. Service providers will need to provide this technology as the standard. Food for thought!
