Site bios-pw.org returned one code that didn't work: V0UzbVb3E3M0X36Q

Tried Ctrl+Enter as well as left-Ctrl+Enter+Enter as recommended on another site.

Manufacturer default also didn't work: Dell

Disconnect power, remove battery and CMOS battery, drain power, reconnect also didn't work (but BIOS date/time is now incorrect and can't be updated).

Thanks for any thoughts you may have!

Earlier post suggested using code generated for BF97 suffix. It worked!

Worked for my 7280 with build date in 2018 and 6FF1 bios suffix.

Same problem here. Dell Latitude 5480

9B4Z6H2-6FF1, tried also with the -BF97 suffix. BIOS version is 1.16.0

EDIT, corrected some info below

Normal and Beta version of tool give the following unlock code for -BF97 suffix: "2[rkFrq[p2mmB8pW" (without the "") Normal and Beta version of tool give the following unlock code for -6FF1: "RGxspCzSE352CBC2" (without the "")

Neither of the codes work. Tried Enter, Ctrl+Enter and Ctrl+Enter+Enter, did not work. Tried with laptops own integrated QWERTY Keyboard and an external one, did not work.

You still having issues with it? When a generator fails, Or you just want to bypass it software is a good way to go! I have a few people needing it. I'll be going through some old files and dig it up!
