Hi there,


See this if you have lost your mac's firmware password



If you can't remember your firmware password, schedule an in-person service appointment with an Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider. Bring your Mac to the appointment, and bring your original receipt or invoice as proof of purchase.
