Sometimes, for whatever reason, you may get an error on your phone which basically asks for your MMC password. The usual problem is that you have absolutely no idea what the password is.

There are two reasonably simple solutions.

The first is to simply format the MMC in your PC or other device.

The second is not destructive to data, and requires you to have a file manager other than the standard Nokia one; We recommend Fexplorer. After downloading and installing this, follow these instructions:

Open FExplorer
Move up/down till you are highlighting C:
Press right on the direction-pad
Press "Options", "File", "Find"
Type in "mmcstore*" (not case-sensitive)
Press "OK"
You should see a file called MMC store (It is actually normally in C:/System)
Press "Options", "File", "Editor (Viewer)"
The password should be in plain text.
Type in the password the next time you are asked for it.


You may also decide to disable the password after this:

Open the program "Memory"
Press "Options", "Remove password"
Type in the password.

sometimes these solutions don´t work. and this is already posted but not with this detail so it can stay.

Hi mate,
What if we have formatted the cell after putting a password on the MMC. In that case, due to formatting, the mmcstore file would get erased. How do we get the password or format the password locked MMC in this case?

thank a lot its working
