Dear Sir/Madam, I am kindly asking you to send me SMC.bin file for my HP ProBook, 6570b with both serial number 5CB3491K1S- and product number A5E64AV.
Best regards.

Sorry, but HP no longer supplies those files.
If you're asking for these to reset a BIOS password, then you would need to read below about HP's NEW policy regarding BIOS passwords.
Please note that now, to resolve a forgotten BIOS or power-on password issue, since that password is embedded into the firmware of the system board, to replace that, a system board replacement is required -- and additional customer costs apply, and while the costs vary by laptop model, they are generally around $200 USD. HP has issued this post about BIOS passwords: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c06368824.
In addition, according to the Community's Rules of Participation:
4d. No posts shall include instructions or directions intended to bypass or subvert security measures, including passwords, locking mechanisms, fingerprint scans, etc., or to bypass any safety measures.
For assistance NOW, you have to contact your regional HP Customer Support location directly as they will confirm ownership of the PC before providing any assistance -- something we are not able to do from here.
