I want to say thank you because of your video that restarted my laptop, I have seen many videos on how to restart the laptop but nothing worked, I restarted my laptop because of your video, thank you and I hope many more people will see our video that will help them
I think for this setting you must first have set the flash drive on which the key would get stored . I connect my HDD 1TB harddisk but it simply says cannot identify this as RESET flash
thank you so much for your help, solved the problem, and you saved my daughter laptop. you the best, excellent video, thanks again and keep up the good work.

Hey there....for some reason, my mom's keyboard is not fully working on her Lenovo Yoga 7. Her password to login is alpha-numeric, but only the numeric keys are working so she is unable to login. I am able to login to her computer as a user because my password is only four numbers. The keyboard is working correctly under my login. If my password was alpha-numeric I wouldn't be able to login either. Because I'm only a user and not an admin, I can't download any drivers or do anything. When it asks for the admin password, the alpha portion of the keyboard will not work under my login either. I know you are super busy, but I do hope you can help me with this issue when you get a moment. Thank you in advance!

I have a Lenovo thinkpad that has a bit locker that I can't remove or bypass
Hi, I just did the master reset and now I'm getting the blue screen (inaccessible hard drive). I ran the memory test and it passed. What should I do next? Please advise.
You have a Lenovo? The memory passed but did the HDD / Storage pass?
Do I loose all my info/data?
If you choose the 'erase everything' option then yes, you will loose everything. If you choose the 'save files' option then no, you should not loose everything if it all goes well
When I started mine mine comes up and says system password
i need help mine isnt showing the usb HDD
But my laptop just gets restart normally nd dont show these options
I have a Lenovo yoga and I forgot my password and this is just not any password it's the system password it's the one that pops up before anything else pops up
Can you try the steps seen here?
I don’t see the link to buy the usb

Doesn't this erase everything?
Yes. If you choose the 'Erase Everything' option during the reset, all DATA will be erased.
Wheres the USB to buy plz 🙏

Hello, I have tried this but somehow my computer doesn’t work.
What happens when you try?
Pls, what would I do if I don't have a USB?
Pls I need help
If you need to use install media then you will need a USB. If you cant create it, you can purchase it. You can see options here: www.amazon.com/shop/pcmonkey/list/2QAI8XMVWC7DK?ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_mixed_d
Mine is not working
I don't work?
I tried it but it goes back to answer “ challenge phrase” 😮
If the reset option does not work and you are unable to reset, perhaps try the new install option. At 1:56 in this video, choose the bottom option for 'Advanced Options' instead and follow the prompts for the New Install. You may need to use a Install Media USB option to finish the new install option. You can see how to create those for free here:

How can you reset without a USB drive
If your computer is asking for one, that means it cant access any restore points. You will have to use a USB. If you dont have one, you can see how to create one here:
Windows 10: ua-cam.com/video/YbC4jZVwQm4/v-deo.html
Windows 11: ua-cam.com/video/WIxDYRBVbmk/v-deo.html
mine, does not go to choose an option
What happens instead? Is your situation that you forgot the password or that the computer is not accepting the correct one?
This doesn't work on a Lenovo ThinkPad X230 with windows 7
This may not work on most Win7 computers as they are a bit too old and usually will not have that option.
You save me bro.. thanks a lot
Glad your all set :) Always here if needed !!
can i replicate that on my lenovo g500?😊
