However, you are not prompted to enter any UEFI BIOS password when your computer resumes from sleep mode. Power-on password If you set a power-on password, a window is displayed on the screen when you turn on the computer. Enter the correct password to use the computer. Supervisor password The supervisor password protects the system information stored in UEFI BIOS. When entering the UEFI BIOS menu, enter the correct supervisor password in the window prompted. You also can press Enter to skip the password prompt. However, you cannot change most of the system configuration options in UEFI BIOS. If you have set both the supervisor password and power-on password, you can use the supervisor password to access your computer when you turn it on.

System management password The system management password can also protect the system information stored in UEFI BIOS like a supervisor password, but it has lower authority by default. The system management password can be set through the UEFI BIOS menu or through Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) with the Lenovo client-management interface. You can enable the system management password to have the same authority as the supervisor password to control security-related features. To customize the authority of the system management password through the UEFI BIOS menu:
1. Restart the computer. When the logo screen is displayed, press F1 to enter the UEFI BIOS menu. 2. Select Security Password System Management Password Access Control. 3. Follow the on-screen instructions. If you have set both the supervisor password and the system management password, the supervisor password overrides the system management password.

NVMe passwords The NVMe password prevents unauthorized access to the data on the storage drive. When an NVMe password is set, you are prompted to type a correct password each time you try to access the storage drive. Single Password When a Single NVMe password is set, the user must enter the user NVMe password to access files and applications on the storage drive. Dual Password (User + Admin) The admin NVMe password is set and used by a system administrator. It enables the administrator to access any storage drive in a system or any computer connected in the same network. The administrator can also assign a user NVMe password for each computer in the network. The user of the computer can change the user NVMe password as desired, but only the administrator can remove the user NVMe password. Chapter 4. Secure your computer and information 33 When prompted to enter an NVMe password, press F1 to switch between the admin NVMe password and user NVMe password. Notes: The NVMe password is not available in the following situations:

If the problem still exists, replace the storage drive. Error: The non-volatile system UEFI variable storage is nearly full. Note:
This error indicates that the operating system or programs cannot create, modify, or delete data in the non-volatile system UEFI variable storage due to insufficient storage space after POST. The non-volatile system UEFI variable storage is used by the UEFI BIOS and by the operating system or programs. This error occurs when the operating system or programs store large amounts of data in the variable storage. All data needed for POST, such as UEFI BIOS setup settings, chipset, or platform configuration data, are stored in a separate UEFI variable storage. Press F1 after the error message is displayed to enter the UEFI BIOS menu. A dialog asks for confirmation to clean up the storage. If you select Yes, all data that were created by the operating system or programs will be deleted except global variables defined by the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface Specification. If you select No, all data will be kept, but the operating system or programs will not be able to create, modify, or delete data in the storage. If this error happens at a service center, Lenovo authorized service personnel will clean up the non-volatile system UEFI variable storage using the preceding solution. Chapter 7.
