TOSHIBA Password Utility

The TOSHIBA Password Utility provides two levels of password security: User and Supervisor.

Passwords set by the TOSHIBA Password Utility function are different from the Windows password.

User Password

To start the utility, point to or click the following items:

Start -> All Programs -> TOSHIBA -> Support & Recovery -> TOSHIBA Assist -> SECURE -> User password

User authentication may be required to validate user rights when using TOSHIBA Password Utility to delete or change passwords, etc.

Set (button)

Click this button to register a password. After a password is set, you will be prompted to enter it when you start the computer. Check "Set the same string simultaneously as the SSD User Password" when setting the SSD User Password.

After you set the password, a dialog box will be displayed asking whether you want to save it to a floppy diskette or other media. If you forget the password, you can open the password file on another computer. Be sure to keep the media in a safe place.

When entering the character string to register the password, enter from the keyboard character by character and do not enter as ASCII code or copy-and-paste the character string. In addition, ensure that the registered password is correct by outputting the character string to the password file.

When entering a password, do not enter any characters (for example "!" or "#") produced by pressing the SHIFT or ALT keys and so on.

Delete (button)

Click this button to delete a registered password. Before you can delete a password, you must first enter the current password correctly. Please use BIOS Setup to change or delete the SSD Passwords or to set the SSD Master Password.
