Hi,
I have a HP Elitebook that was used for my small company, due to the current situation I had to close the doors.
The person who setup my pc and did all my IT related work put a bios password on the laptop and I havent been able to get in touch with him.
Is is any way i can reset the BIOS password .
Thanks in advance,

This is one of the reasons it is a BAD idea to buy a used laptop.
I'm really sorry that we can not help you with this, but Community policy prohibits us from assisting you in any way with bypassing or resetting passwords.
For BIOS or power-on password resets, read this HP thread: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c06368824.
If you are not prepared to spend the money to get HP to replace the motherboard for BIOS password resets, you could take the PC to a local repair facility to see if they can do it for you -- but we are unable to assist in that.
