Basically I had an issue in my laptop where It could not read the disk in my hard drive and I tried to fix it by going in safe mode
But there is an administrative password on it
Which is basically bios password and I do not have a clue about that
How to get it
I searched it up
It showed that I had to contact HP for help
But I could not find any by any means so if anybody could help me
This was my fathers laptop and I need to fix it today before he sees it

Hello @Mahtaq ,
Welcome to the HP Poly community.
A quick community search for the terms BIOS & Password finds all these posts >here<, which are mainly closed with the below explanation:
Unfortunately, you will need to contact an HP agent for problems with BIOS passwords.
Here is HP's official policy regarding BIOS passwords:
According to the Community's Rules of Participation:
4d. No posts shall include instructions/directions intended to bypass or subvert security mechanisms such as lock screens, BitLockers, BIOS lock, passwords, fingerprint/biometry scanners, PINs, or any other safety measures.
Therefore, this topic is being locked. If you would like help resetting the password on your product, please Contact HP support in your region.
For cases related to BitLocker issues, please contact Microsoft Support.
The only way to recover your PC's BitLocker key is if you printed it out or exported it to your Microsoft account when you first set up your PC.
Find your BitLocker recovery key - Microsoft Support
Without the key, you will have to clean install Windows on the encrypted drive so you can use your PC again.
Best regards
Steffen Baier
