Product: HP OMEN 15 2020
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have an HP Omen 15 2020 intel model which O have owned for about 9 months now. I wished to change the function key preset and for that I needed to enter the BIOS, but when I pressed F10 to enter the BIOS, it prompted me to enter Administrator Password, which I have never set in the first place. I tried generic default passwords such as 0000,1234 etc but none have worked.

 

The laptop does boot to windows and works as usual.

TLDR: Laptop asks for admin password when entering BIOS, even though it was never set

 

Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.
