Forgotten Mac Firmware Password
Before we begin with this article, we just want to point quickly the misconception people have on the firmware password. Firmware is when the Mac first boot into to search for boot record information. It is the firmware where many technicians log into in your Mac to perform tests, diagnose and perform technical maintenance of your computer. For this reason, many people set firmware password to be different from the usual account password used to login into the Mac. You may ask why would anyone set a firmware password when it comes with potentially disastrous consequence? Well it’s for higher security to prevent unauthorised access to settings that may alter your computer behaviour.
