I tried it and it still did nothing to help secure boot work. Still got a violation even after clearing CMOS

Hi @WarriorWon1,

 

Thanks for confirming the model details and for trying the earlier steps. Since Secure Boot is still failing even after clearing CMOS and restoring defaults, let’s go deeper with advanced recovery steps.
Disable TPM

Boot → press F10 → set TPM State to Disabled → Clear TPM: Yes → F10 to save → shut down → power on.

Enable Secure Boot

Boot → press F10 → apply Load HP Factory Default Keys → set Secure Boot to Enabled → F10 to save → shut down → power on.

Re‑enable TPM

Boot → press F10 → set TPM State to Enabled → Clear TPM: No → F10 to save → shut down → power on.

Verify in Windows

Run msinfo32 → check Secure Boot State: ON.

This sequence temporarily disables TPM, enrolls platform keys with Secure Boot, then re‑enables TPM. A restart is required between each step.

 

Let me know how it goes.

 

Best Regards,
