Windows 10: TPM

Why don't I have TPM enabled on my Dell processor

:)

 

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.

 

Need help on whether to clear TPM on not

It's clear as mud. As far as I can tell, it's specific to Windows, not necessarily activated programs like MacAfee, games, etc etc etc. MS Office, I have no idea.

Here's a lengthy doc on it: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/wi...initialize-and-configure-ownership-of-the-tpm

 

TPM Ready with reduced functionality; unable to use BitLocker


Well at this time I have no other suggestions other than to call Asus and see if there's something else that needs to be done or checked on that board.

1. BTW What specific version of Windows 10 are you running?
2. Are you on the insiders track?
3. Also, where are you trying to save your TPM password to?

Thanks.
