To delete the BIOSConnect profile from the BIOS, run the following command: cctk.exe
BIOSConnect --Delete --valsyspwd=pwd.

Existing -O reads the supported features and writes in .ini file. This includes BIOSConnect profiles
as well. Profiles which are set, their entries are available in .ini file and profile value is written in
an .xml file.

directory.
--xml command is used to read all the features that are supported by the Dell Command
| Configure. This file is used by the Dell Command | Configure user interface. To update
--xml option and if you provide the correct password, .ini file contains the following entry
ConnectionProfile=ConnectionProfile.xml and the .xml profile exists in the same
directory.
When you provide an incorrect password or the password is not provided, then the
following command <option option_id="CloudAppProfile" name="CloudAppProfile"
value="CloudAppProfile.xml" errorcode="1"/> is created in the dump.xml.
NOTE:
When the setup password is set or both the setup and the system password is set, and
if you provide an incorrect password or the password is not provided, then the error code 2 is
displayed.

option does not have any entry in .ini and .xml file.
