Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I have purchased two used zbooks and the bios passwords were not provided I wanted to see if there was an SMC.bin that was available to unlock them.

 

They are HP zBook firefly 16 in G11's

Hello @No_onE_4 
Unfortunately there isn't any way to remove the BIOS password without replacing the motherboard. For more details - HP Business PCs - Forgotten or lost BIOS password | HP® Support

I am an HP Employee. Although I am speaking for myself and not for HP.
