How to Remove Hard Drive Password on Acer Laptop

How to Remove Hard Drive Password on Acer Laptop



A utility is provided in some laptops to lock a hard disk with a password. But these passwords are not the same as BIOS passwords sometimes. Maybe you can remove BIOS password just by moving battery from motherboard. However, the same way is not available for removing hard disk password because of these reasons:
  • Hard disk password is stored in the hard disk firmware and moves with the hard disk. 
  • If you add a new (unlocked) hard disk to a locked machine, it may lead to new hard disk to be locked. 
  • Note that hard disk lock passwords cannot be removed by reformatting the disk, formatting disk or any other software procedure (since the disk will not allow and reads or writes to the disk, it cannot be reformatted.)
So how to remove hard drive password? Take Acer laptop as an example according to two different situations. 

There is one possibility that BIOS password and hard disk lock passwords are set the same by a user and we can recover the BIOS password directly from the laptop security chip (after it is removed from the system board.) However, it is possible that the BIOS password and hard disk lock passwords may be set different. In this case the BIOS password will not unlock the hard disk. You can test to confirm if your hard disk is locked by attempting to access it in another laptop.

At this time, you should only remove HDD password with some password cracker when you have forgotten HDD password. If you still remember hard disk password, or you remember bios password is the same as hard drive password, follows the below to remove it. 
  1. Start your Acer laptop and hold on pressing F2
  2. Few seconds later, you will enter BIOS Setup Utility
  3. Press Page Up and Page Down key to choose Security option from menu
    You would see there are three password settings choices, Set Supervisor Password, Set User Password, Set HDD Password and Password on Boot.

   4.  Choose Set HDD Password, and a dialog window pops up.
   5.  Enter current password, and keep ÒEnter New PasswordÓ and ÒConfirm New PasswordÓ blank at the same time. 


   6.  Click F10 to save these changes.


  7.  Reboot Acer laptop again, you will find you can enter computer and access hard disk freely.

Tips help recovering deleted files from Windows hard drive

Tips help recovering deleted files from Windows hard drive


If youÕve accidentally deleted a file on PC and need to get it back, belows are 2 golden tips

1. You Should Stop Use the Hard Drive Immediately after Data Loss

The file deleted is recoverable. When you delete files the data itself isnt deleted, just the index entry that tells the system where the data for those files is located. The area containing the deleted data is also now marked as free space so it is available for any new files to be written there instead. If and when that happens, then it is too late to recover your deleted files. So it is very, very important to not save any new files or data to the device concerned. 

2. Perform Deleted File Fecovery As Soon As Possible

As Windows continues to write files to your hard drive, the chances of it overwriting the deleted files increases. If you deleted a file on year ago, you may lost the chance to retrieve the deleted things. But if you just deleted files an hour ago, even you "shift+delete" the file, you still have high chance to get back them with Windows hard drive data recovery . If you want to be sure you can recover most of lost files, you should perform a recovery immediately.

How-to: Deleted file recoverying from a Crashed Hard Drive in 3 Steps

1. Connect the Drive to Another Computer

If the hard drive crash, you will need to remove it from the current machine and connect it to another machine as a secondary drive. You can connect the drive to another desktop computer internally as a secondary drive.  If you do, make sure that the machine detects the drive in the BIOS or you wonÕt be able to access it.

Try to Copy the Data to Another Drive

Recovering deleted data via copying the data to another drive. The reason is you can copy data off that you would like to recover for there is a chance that only the operating system is corrupt and the user data is still fine. After you connect the hard drive to another computer either internally or with the USB adapter, you can check to make sure if you can browse the contents stored on the drive. 

Download Deleted File Recovery Software

If you canÕt manually copy the user data off then you can try to recover it using data recovery software.  Whatever you do, do not install the recovery software on to the drive that you are trying to recover data from. Doing so could actually overwrite files that you want to restore.

The best way for recovering deleted files from a hard drive is powering the computer down immediately after the file is deleted, inserting the hard drive into another computer, and using an operating system running on another hard drive to recover it. If you try to recover a file by installing a file-recovery program on the same hard drive, the installation process and normal use of the hard drive can overwrite the file.

Principles of Hard Disk Data File Storage and Format

Principles of Hard Disk Data File Storage and Format



Why we still could restore or retrieve deleted file or datain computer, including file and data you delete or format accidently or because of system partition damage, cloning reduction system or disk data unable to read and write? Please follow and read the principles of hard disk data and file storage, hard disk format to get answers.

1. How to read file in hard disk?

Windows operational system reads file information from directory, including file name, file name extension, file size, modification date and cluster number of first cluster of file in data zone. Now we suppose the first cluster is 0023. Windows will read data from cluster 0023. And find 0023 unit in FAT. If it reads the ending mark, it means the file has been read completely. If not, save the next cluster number of data until Windows finds file ending mark.

2. How to write file in hard disk?

When we prepare to save files in computer, Windows operational system will find an empty zone in DIR to write down file name, file size and creation date etc information. And find empty zone to save file in Data zone. At the same time, write the first cluster of Data zone into DIR zone. Other operations are similar to the file read in hard disk.

3. How to delete file?

When we are going to delete file or data in computer, Win 9X system just change the first character of file in directory and instead it of E5, not delete it from computer completely.

4. How to format hard disk?

Hard disk only could be used after disk partition, disk format and Windows operational system installation are finished. The complete disk data includes five parts, MBR, DBR, FAT, DIR and DATA. There is only one MBR, but other parts could increase following the increasing of partition.
Hard disk format program only rewrites FAT table and modify MBR and OBR when we format disk. Many data on DATA zone have not been changed. This is the reason why hard disk could be recovered.

From the principles of disk format and data deletion, we know data could be recovered if we find the starting location of file. But please pay attention to that you have not covered this file before data recovery.
