İ have an HP Pavillion Gaming 15-dk0011nt and today suddenly when i wanted to boot up my laptop it asked me to enter an "Administrator Password or Power On Password. However im pretty sure i didnt set one for my laptop, i didnt even go to BIOS anytime soon. when i've searched on the internet about this it seems like people with this problem had an system error code showing up after 3 wrong inputs but my laptop only says "Authentication Failes, System Locked. Press the power button to shutdown the system." when i do 3 wrong attempts. What do i do?
