Is there any software to recover the hard drive disk password? Is it possible to reset the hard drive password? According to Dell, Asus, HP, Huawei, Samsung, Lenovo and many other manufacturers’ websites, if you forget your hard drive or hard disk password, then there is no possible way for you to reset your password or recover the data in the hard disk drive. Basically the HDD or SSD hard disk is unusable.

However, this is often not true. Most people are not aware that most hard disk drives have the ability to set a hardware password, just like the Bios password for motherboards, thus making the drive completely inaccessible unless a correct password is provided during the BIOS POST test. Usually these features can only be found in laptops, this is when you set a password on your notebook, the hard drive together with the motherboard becomes locked. All software tested and works on Seagate, Hitachi, Toshiba and Western Digital Hard Drive HDD and SSD.
Most experts would say if you forget the original HDD or Bios password, there is no way of restoring it by generic system tools. Unlike the Bios password where there is a master key or with the removal of the bios battery, the password is erased from the flash memory thus the settings is restored to factory settings without the password, however, this does not applies to hard disk.
1. Victoria HDD
Crack HDD Password
This is a version of Victoria for Windows. Being a powerful HDD information and diagnostic utility, it has the same functionality as its counterpart for DOS. But it also have some benefits, like: low CPU load, more convenient user interface, multitasking and multithreading.
2. Ultimate Boot CD
Reset Hard Disk Password
Do search with Bing for atapwd or “ata password” ; it’s part of the new ATA spec. You can enter a “master password” that will remove the “user password” that has be setup on the drive. This master password is manufacturer specific. So search your hard drive manufacturers website for Bing around for a list of master passwords.
Remember you CAN lock out your drive. This is bad. You can always remove the password without the master password but when you do it using that method the drive will be wiped. So the only way to solve this is to find a master password or try and work out what user password was set on the hard drive. To try out the Master password for unlocking your HD you need to have an Ultimate boot CD and can use the “mhdd” utility included in that CD , it is easy and works well.
- Download Ultimate Boot CD
- Burn it into a Disc and boot it up. (Use ISO burner. If using windows 7, right click the file and choose “Burn Disc Image”)
- On main menu, choose “HDD” > “Diagnostic” > “MHDD v4.6”
- You will see a list of harddisk, select a harddisk you want to unlock
- Type “unlock” and reply “1” for master password
- Enter the master password. (If it is wrong, ERR will turns red on the top of the screen, and You have 4 more tries before it powercycle the disk)
- If it is correct, type “DISPWD” and reply “1”. (There will be a warning if your disk is still locked)
- Retype the master password again and your disk is unlocked! (ERR will turn red if the password wrong)
- Type exit and press “ctrl + alt+ del” to reboot your computer
3. CMOS PWD
Remove BIOS Password
You know that moment when you go to check settings in your BIOS only to realize someone has put on a password, so you find yourself locked out. I know the feeling, that’s why I have put together a tutorial to help you to remove the password in UNDER 10 minutes!
- First you need to download CMOSPWD, extract folder and copy it to the C Drive (Or whatever letter is your hard drive)
- Next open a run window (Start Logo + R)
- Type “cmd” and press enter
- Now type “cd c:\cmospwd-5.0\windows\” (C is drive letter and windows is operating system) and press enter
- Next type “ioperm -i” and press enter
- After that type “cmospwd_win /k” and press enter
- That will bring you to the screen that has the numbers “1” “2” and “0”
- Type “2” and press enter…
- BAM!!!!!!!!!!! PASSWORD REMOVED
The program basically decrypts the password that is stored in CMOS, which is used to access the BIOS setup. Now this program won’t work with all BIOS out there, but here are the ones it will work with ACER/IBM BIOS, AMI BIOS, AMI WinBIOS 2.5, Award 4.5x/4.6x/6.0, Compaq (1992), Compaq (New version), IBM (PS/2, Activa, Thinkpad), Packard Bell, Phoenix 1.00.09.AC0 (1994), a486 1.03, 1.04, 1.10 A03, 4.05 rev 1.02.943, 4.06 rev 1.13.1107, Phoenix 4 release 6 (User), Gateway Solo – Phoenix 4.0 release 6, Toshiba, Zenith AMI, Dell, Asus, MSI, Microsoft, Samsung, Fujitsu…
4. HDD Unlock Wizard
User-friendly Unlocker
HDD Unlock Wizard is a user-friendly application which allows you to easily remove HDD passwords. IDE and SATA hard disk drives are supported. Both User and Master password can be removed. Please note that while unlocking, HDD Unlock Wizard will erase and re-certify the drive, meaning to say all data in the disk is lost and not recoverable. HDD Unlock Wizard incorporates proprietary unlocking algorithms which allow removing an unknown HDD password and making the hard drive usable again.
It may not be possible to recover the hard drive password or to unlock it; however, it is possible to remove the password together with the data, thus making your hard disk accessible and usable again.

i do have a hitachi 40 gig laptop hard drive with very crucial info locked with i password i have lost i realy need help removing it pliz provide a solution sooner than later i know you have
Thank you.
you can search for a password boot disk which will disable the administrator password. There are dozens of these types of programs but one program I recommend is windows password reset 6.0
Download the iso file and burn it to a disk to create the boot disk, that simple.
Configure your pc or laptop to boot in the cd drive, insert the CD and it would boot then just disable the password and restart. Took about 5 minutes for the whole process.
I’ve a Toshiba 12GB drive password-locked containing my son’s photos. Completely forgotten the password.

Has anyone used his service before?

Thanking you …
I have a Toshiba laptop and I don’t know the Administrator Password, I would use a recovery tool but this laptop has no disk drive, please help!
I’ve had the same problem. You need to first remove the BIOS password and then you’ll have to remove the HDD password. The BIOS password can be removed by shorting it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dd06-tVVq8I. (Using a flat head screwdriver didn’t work for me so I got a CAT 5 cable, took the shielding or on both ends, twisted the ends and but both ends to the connectors labeled xxx). Then you can get pass the HDD password by pulling the HDD out, boot using a windows installation disk but take the disk out while it’s loading and put the HDD back in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2OFUsEBLHU. Unfortunately I haven’t find a way to remove the HDD password yet but I’m trying a tool in Hirens boot CD called secure erase freeware that’ll hopefully remove it once and for all
I was able to remove the HDD password using a tool called MHDD ( the commands to use are: pwd clears (to set a user password), unlock (use the use password you set) and then dispwd (that removes the HDD password). Enjoy!
Thanks for the help. It wasn’t working in the order I was typing the commands, and when I followed your order of doing it, it worked. I had to select “User Password” instead of “Master password” for it to work though. Just to help out someone else out there researching this same subject.
Is there a way you could explain step by step on how you did it please
Im confused
Hello, Sir i have dell latitude series with 250 gb hdd i have forgotten my password help me to unlock it by any method requird please i have some very important document..
I need your help concerning my Toshiba laptop, satellite S855-55381, windows 8, i7 core -bought new in 2013. Though barely used (mostly for storing photo files) it started refusing my admin password to which eventually I could not get into it. After more than a year of no powering I tried again and still unable to get to it. Took it to a repair tech shop which came back to tell me my laptop was now asking for HDD/SSD password. They suggested replacing the hard drive. I took it Best Buy and I was told the same, that my hard drive is useless and files are no longer accessible. The Costco Tech concierge connected me directly to Toshiba people and they said the same thing and that the hard drive was from another manufacturer and no longer serviceable. What can I or you do to get into my hard drive for the passwords (mine, the HDD or SSD) and to my files? I also have portable WD hard drives with security which I can not unlock because I did not note may passwords, instead, I relied on my laptop to open access each directly. Thank you and anyone who can assist or give me help.
You should be able to backup the user data once you’re able to login then just reformat the drive, reinstall windows and then restore the backup onto windows and now you are back to normal working condition.
by the way. I used a bootable USB stick to do this so no CD drive needed

I have problem unlocking my laptop hp compaqnx9005. it requires drive lock password and hdd password. what do i do?
don’t lost your money. it is very easy way to unlock the password of any laptop when the password is H.D or bios password it doesn’t matter.
just open you laptop and see one small “jampar” near to battery or next to possessor or next to the fan. it have two “2′ holes and three places for the jamper put from one side to other side slowly don’t worry from anything it doesn’t matter. after put out your battery and switch on without battery and 5 sec ofter off it again after put your battery and on the laptop.
your password will be removed but don’t forget the jamper put it again in the default place.
if any kind happen emil me. but just one time don’t be hangry me.

Everything man made can be un-made. The only thing that can’t be made by man are god’s creation. Simple as that. Yes, a password protected hard disk can be unlocked.

I have tried to unlock my HD in countless ways.

The bios will not realize that it’s the locked one and will let to change the password. There is one issue though – you could frie both the motherboard and the hdd. So I don’t know…

Drive Lock
The Drive Lock password protects the data on your hard drive through encryption. If your computer is stolen, the data on the hard drive is inaccessible without the Drive Lock password. This password cannot be reset. If it is lost or forgotten, the hard drive must be replaced. Please contact HP to order a new hard drive. This service is not covered by the warranty.
Sir, I have a Acer HDD but it is asking for HDD Password so can you give solutions please
If the above tutorial doesn’t work, you will have to visit Acer service center for the master key. More often than not, they do not have a master key. Reason being that HDD password are meant to protect the content from being stolen, thus it will probably take a super computer to break the code.

My acer was stolen..i have password on bios and password for my windows…do you mean they can crack it easily…if they do so..will they recover all my files on my drive d..thanks…looking forward for your reply..
Yes, more often than not, the BIOS password can be reset by simply removing the tiny internal battery for a few minutes. Alternatively, they can reset the BIOS too. If they can remove the password or reset the BIOS, they will have access to your files. Unless you password protect your windows and enable encryption on your hard disk.

My Dell inspiring 15z 5523 laptop has been stolen , I had a bios password and HDD password , will the thief be able to by pass the password and access my information on the HDD ?
hmm… unlikely, but not impossible if it was ‘stolen’ by the FBI or police for investigation purpose. If you have nothing illegal, there is nothing to be afraid, losing photos and some company documents to a ‘thief’ is not a big issue… unless….

I have a toshiba HD – the laptop it was in was dropped and everything quit working. We removed the hard drive and have a sata cable but it says it is password protected and not accessible. Is there any way to remove that password or get around this without having to pay huge amounts to a third party?
the password and have it dropped are not related in anyway. if it is dropped, you need professional help, if it is password related, you should know your own password.
I have the hard drive removed and hooked up to the sata cable but it says I cannot access it because of the password — I know what it is but I dont know how to remove it!?!?!
Is that your hard disk? If it is yours, then you should know your own password. If you’ve forgotten, then you are out of luck. If it is not your hard disk, then the owner doesn’t want you to have access to his or her hard disk.
Excuse me — It is MY hard drive – from MY laptop that I am trying to recover – when I try to open it like it was an external drive hooked up via USB to my other laptop it says it was password protected. So that’s what I am asking – how to put in the password or remove that so that I AM able to access MY data!
like I said, if it is your HDD, you should know your password because you are the one that set it. Maybe you forgot about it, if that is the case, good luck.

Hello there. My Name is Demoze
And I am a Digital Laboratory assistant at the University of Gondar(Ethiopia).
So my case is that there is a Digital Laboratory where am working and it’s a place where students use some research,Watch YouTube tutorials,download some books, and some take online courses, etc…
So now Students started to lock the Windows password because, if they lock it with their own password no one is going to be sited on that place so whenever they wanted to use that computer it’s available. But the thing is there are only 220 Dell optiplex 790 and 3020 Desktops and thousands of students. So there is no enough computers for all of the students.
So students started to lock the Windows password, but Windows password is easy to break using software’s or by formatting the Windows and reinstalling.
And they started to lock the Bios password and it’s also easy to break we just unplug the Blue Jumper.
But now they started to lock the HDD password and it’s getting worse. We are running out of solutions here,
When we start up the pc it asks for HDD password. So is there anyway to fix this pleas somebody,
