While updating the bios suddenly the electricity cuts & automatically ANV15-41 laptop was turn off.
When I was updating bios, suddenly electricity cuts and automatically my laptop was turn off. Then it sounds like a beep around 7-8 sound. After turning on my laptop, I try to redo bios update but it shows this error (this bios file does not allow to flash. the flash process will be terminated). Does it cause any damage to my laptop?

Hi, if you still can boot to BIOS with F2, reset BIOS with F9 and press F10 to save changes. Boot to Windows and try to install the BIOS update again. If you can't boot to BIOS or to Windows, you need to bring the laptop to Acer Services to reprogram the EEPROM for a small service fee.

Hi, no need to reinstall Windows, since you can boot to Windows, try to boot to BIOS from Windows, type BIOS in Search and click on "Change advanced startup options", in the blue Troubleshoot window click on 'Advanced" and In the Advanced Options menu, click on "UEFI Firmware Settings". Finally, click on "Restart" to enter the UEFI/BIOS settings. In Bios press F9 to reset and F10 to save changes. If that does not work you need to bring the laptop to Acer Services in your country as it still is under warranty.

Windows and BIOS are two separate entities. If you can access BIOS like @Puraw mentioned, you can reset it from within BIOS.
