Elitebook 820 G3
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I'm using HP assistant to update my BIOS. After downloading the update file, the updster asks for BIOS password, and I do not have the password. I tried like a million different "backdoor" passwords I found from google with no success. Trying to access BIOS settings at boot also requires a password, but it only lets me try three times before locking up. I receive no error messages.

 

I can't update my BIOS, what should I do?

Thanks.

I have the latest verison of windows 10 on this Elitebook 820 g3.
