    Hi. I have a Toshiba U205 that has the fingerprint sensors. I had a set of prints and a backup password in the bios at startup. I recently restored the laptop to it's default settings and removed the prints I had enrolled, but it did not remove the backup password from the bios that I have to enter at powerup. Question: How do I remove the backup password from the bios? Thanks for any help rendered :)

    You can do that in the BIOS. Enter the BIOS at bootup. Browse through the options and look for the password section.
