User and Supervisor.

Passwords set by the TOSHIBA Password Utility function are different from

Set (button)
Click this button to register a password. After a password is set, you
will be prompted to enter it when you start the computer.

After you set the password, a dialog box will be displayed asking
whether you want to save it to a floppy diskette or other media. If you
forget the password, you can open the password file on another
computer. Be sure to keep the media in a safe place.
When entering the character string to register the password, enter
from the keyboard character by character and do not enter as ASCII
code or copy-and-paste the character string. In addition, ensure that
the registered password is correct by outputting the character string to
the password file.
When entering a password, do not enter any characters (for example
"!" or "#") produced by pressing the SHIFT or ALT keys and so on.

Delete (button)
Click this button to delete a registered password. Before you can
delete a password, you must first enter the current password correctly.
