MFS 600 prodesk: A power on password can be bypassed/deleted in ProDesk600

We have a user who is very computer savvy and gives us a lot of problems and headaches.  We want to stop playing with his computer.  We recently locked his Windows security, but he is familiar with the images and Acronis and made an image of the hard disk before the changes.  With the Prodesk600, the bios gives us the ability to have both a working password and a bios admin password and I want to put them both on his computer.  However, I did some research and it has been possible to circumvent these simply by pulling the CMOS battery.  Is it always true for new models like the Prodesk 600 (manufacture date around 2015)?  If pulling the battery removes these passwords, is there anything else we can do to lock your PC?

Hello:

In the Security menu BIOS, must be an option to enable strict security.

Which prevents anyone being able to clear BIOS passwords.

BTW, there is a rider green to clear the password on all desktops HP business for a long time... certainly at least 12 years.  Rigorous security came to be on the models dc7900 (an ancestor of the Prodesk 600).

Remove the CMOS battery does not have a password for BIOS, even if strong security is not enabled.

Make sure that you save the BIOS password, because if you ever forget and rigorous security are enabled, you will need to replace the motherboard in order to access the BIOS of the PC.

Remove the jumper Pswd BIOS green with stringent security active does nothing.

    Hello

    You need to reinstall the operating system and wipe the hard drive before give you your Dell to someone else to protect your data.

    The data can still be retrieved by others, but it is a deterrent for the most honest people.

    Reset the Microsoft connected account password

    HP recommends using a Microsoft account connected (MSA) to log Windows. With a Microsoft connected account, you log in to Windows using your email address and the password can be reset using a different device at any time. You don't need a Hotmail e-mail address or Microsoft to put in place a connected account. Any email address works.

    To reset your password for an INT account follow these steps:

    1. Open an Internet browser and go to the Microsoft Web page to reset your password : https://account.live.com/password/reset.
    2. Select I forgot my password, and then click reset password.
    3. Follow the on-screen instructions to reset your password.

    When the password is reset, you will be able to use your Microsoft account with the new password to connect to Windows 10 and Windows 8. Make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet until you try to connect.

    1. Insert your removable media.
    2. Open accounts by clicking theStart button, clicking Control Panel, clicking user accounts and family safety, and then clicking user accounts.
    3. In the left pane, clickcreate a password reset disk, and then follow the instructions. Make sure that you store the disk to reset password in place safe.

    If you enter the wrong password when you attempt to log on, Windows displays a message that the password is incorrect.

    1. Click OK to close the message.
    2. Click reset password, and then insert your password reset disk or USB key.
    3. Follow the steps in the password reset Wizard to create a new password.
    4. Login with the new password. If you forget your password again, you can use the same password reset disk. You don't need to make a new.
