XTS5000 UHF help to unlock code Plug

[TheTechPianoPlayerKid]

Hello,
I need help to restore my Motorola XTS5000 Radio, which I will be selling. However, I cannot for the life of me to get the code-plug password figured out to remove it. Yes I know, I was crazy to set one. Now with that out of the way, how in the world do I fix this? I heard you can use the Depo software, but I do not know where to find it, nor do I know if it will support on my Windows 11 laptop or my Silicone M2 MacBook Pro. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have heard that you can upload a code-plug that is blank, but I cannot find one for my specific model. I tried writing one that did not have a password on it, but it still requested the read/write password. Again, any help would be greatly appreciated.

That is going to be a problem as you have already found out. Obviously, if you sell it as-is, the radio will be just about useless to the buyer. You may want to keep the Motorola XTS5000 HT and use it with whatever you programmed it for. I had an XTS5000 assigned to me at one time and it is a decent HT.

Depot is something we don't talk about here.
