Passwords set in TOSHIBA Password Utility are different from the
Windows password.
After you set the password, a dialog box will be displayed asking whether
you want to save it to a floppy disk 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.
