Windows 10: TPM Error 80280036

Hey guys, not sure what to make of this I need some help.

Fresh Windows 10 image on a domain PC, clean install not an in place upgrade.

It is a Dell E6440 and has the TPM activated, Bitlocker enabled and drive encrypted successfully and we use Microsoft Multifactor Authentication with O365 and Exchange Online.


Whenever my user Opens Outlook he'**** with an MFA login window, it calls him, he verifies, then gets another one immediately after, answers the call hits # again to verify, then pops up this window:




I looked up the error code 80280036 - TPM_E_NOTFIPS The TPM is attempting to execute a command only available when in Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) mode.


Not sure how to resolve this or even make it go away, my knowledge in this area is highly lacking. Appreciate any suggestions or even education on this as I hate being in the dark on it.


Thanks for your time.

:)

 

TPM update

Don't know if this is the right place for this thread but whatever, laptop informed me that " a firmware update is needed for you security processor (TPM)," now, i looked up what to do and from a microsoft support thing, the last step says to clear the tpm. it has a warning saying to back up my data, i would like to know what clearing the tpm does, and what measures i need to take to make sure nothing goes wrong.

 

Windows 10 v.1709 Error 0x8000FFFF & TPM is not usable?

We appreciate the update that you provided. Upon reviewing the steps you've mentioned in the past, it seems you haven't tried uninstalling the TPM driver yet. An outdated version of this driver can directly affect the Hardware Troubleshooter and cause the 0x8000FFFF
error. To uninstall the TPM driver, follow these steps:

• Right-click Start.
• Click Device Manager.
• Expand Security devices.
• Right-click Trusted Platform Module 1.2 and choose Uninstall.
• Restart your computer and let Windows automatically reinstall the driver.

Let us know if the error disappears after following these steps.
