BIOS setup asking for a password after bios update

[mm_farahat1]

Hello, I've a problem with my spectre x360, after the recent bios update (version F.37) I found that function keys (F1 to F12) were reset back to the default behavior where I have to hold fn key first to make the action, so I booted to the bios setup to change this setting but it's asking me for bios "administrator password" and I don't remember setting any password for the bios.

is this a common problem or it's just me?

your help is highly appreciated, Thanks.
