As I already said, this forum will not provide any assistance in resetting passwords -- despite what advice others may give you.

 

You have to contact HP Customer Service directly for assistance.

There is no way to recover that password if you do not know it, or if you forgot it.  Any factory reset is going to require that password.

 

Why are you trying to do a recovery?

If you're looking to reboot Windows and need the admin password, you typically need to ask the system administrator or the person who set up the computer. Alternatively, if it's your personal computer and you forgot your password, you might need to reset it using password recovery options or contact support for assistance.
