I have tried everything, backdoor passwords, flashing the bios and bios reset tools made by my manufacturer (which is HP). All fail to work. I'm trying to install Kali Linux but I have secure boot on and it won't let me boot in the USB I made. if there are any ways around either of these, please let me know.

are you seriously suggesting that you flashed the BIOS and it still asks you for a password?– barlopJan 17, 2019 at 0:55

@barlop Probably UEFI, not BIOS, in which case yes, that happens. Passwords and Windows key are stored elsewhere and aren't deleted or reset even if flashed.– user931000Jan 17, 2019 at 1:16

The OP needs to contact tech support.– user931000Jan 17, 2019 at 1:17

@GabrielaGarcia This site does offer tech support. What do you think this site is doing?– barlopJan 17, 2019 at 1:18

@barlop It's implicit the manufacturer's (HP) tech support (and provide proof of ownership).– user931000Jan 17, 2019 at 1:20
