If you forget the master password or the keyboard fails, which is critical to password entry, no bypass is possible and the data stored on the hard disk
drive will not be accessible. There is NO RESET of this password. You will have to replace the hard disk drive at your own expense and lose all the data
stored on the original hard disk drive. Be sure to write down the master password and keep it safe and private from other people.
If you have set the hard disk password in conjunction with the fingerprint authentication functionality, you can substitute fingerprint recognition for
password entry when turning on your computer. For more information, see Using Fingerprint Authentication
