We are needing to run a report to determine which laptops do not have the Bios password turned on. I am not even sure if this possible through Lansweeper or not. Any ideas or thoughts? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance

We don't scan this information from Windows computers. In most cases the BIOS password settings can't be seen in Windows, but there are some PC manufacturers who update WMI or possibly registry settings. You might be able to find scripts which read this information locally from the PC. You could use scripts as asset actions or deploy them in your network with the deployment feature of Lansweeper in order to collect it. Registry values can be scanned through custom registry scanning in Lansweeper.
