Set a BIOS or UEFI Password
Setting up a password on BIOS or UEFI is not recommended, but if you have made up your mind, here is how you can do it.

Good luck!

Some BIOS'es allow select bootable device without entering BIOS configuration and changing boot order. That is without a password. Usually they show proper message on the POST screen which invites to press <F12>, <F10> or <F9> or some other key to select one-time bootable device.
