Hey, Does anyone know how to access the bios of the Toshiba Satellite Pro C50-a-15Q, I believe the laptop is in fast boot mode so I am unable to get into it, I am trying to boot from USB as it has a password on in which is unknown, (old family members), thanks.


I have tried holding down F2 and switching on the pc but that is not working.

I had this problem. Drove me crazy.
Apparently with windows 10, it really does not shut down completely when you say shut down.
If you hold the shift key while you click on shut down, it will shut down completely.
That should allow you to enter the bios by pressing the appropriate key(F2, del probably) while powering on.
Once in the bios, you have to disable fast boot and specify legacy and allow usb boot.
