Someone could help me with any solution to remove the key ?

Which key are you lacking?
- the key you need to press to gain access to it?
- a password- is your BIOS password protected?
- or some other key?
Thanks.
Yes it's the BIOS password protected. The password was forgotten

Scroll down to the Laptop section
Or see Pt 3.
Hmm, does this contravene forum rules? @z3r010
That is an old 7th gen business laptop if I am not mistaken. Likely thrown out or sold off for pennies by some business that was upgrading.
[SOLVED] Remove BIOS and Supervisor Password from Lenovo ...
On a desktop you could short-circuit the "reset bios" or "reset CMOS" contacts on the motherboard for a couple of seconds. The old school way is to remove the motherboard battery for a couple of minutes. But on a laptop is hard to access that battery... You have to google if there is a master key for your model that overrides the BIOS password and grants you access. Once there make sure to delete the password or change it so you remember is next time.
This method is a little advanced and risky. Better google for a master key or other workaround first before trying this. If he has to disassemble most of the laptop to reach these contacts, he might as well try removing the BIOS battery. It is easier to do.
