Hello, I would like to know how I can downgrade the version of my bios, I have F.29 but I want to return to F.28, I already tried to do it by manually downloading the F.28 version directly from the HP page, but when I enter the bios using the f2 key to update it and go from version F.29 to F.28 I get a notice that says "The system BIOS updated failed. Unable to open BIOS Signature file." When I saw this error, I tried to do it through Rollback, I selected the BIOS image I wanted and the screen told me "Current BIOS Version: F.29 - Version of BIOS after Rollback: F.28" Then I clicked on Rollback now and I got a notice that said "The system BIOS rollback failed. Unable to open BIOS Signature file." Seeing that neither of these two options worked for me, I tried to force the downgrade by turning off the laptop and holding down the win + B keys but I got a message that said the following "The BIOS recovery files cannot be found or the files are corrupted. Using another computer and a USB flash drive, download the latest BIOS file from the HP websiote and create a BIOS USB recovery drive for the PC that needs recovery. Insert the BIOS USB recovery drive into the PC that needs recovery and restart the PC. " I hope you can please help me with this problem that I have been trying to solve for days, thank you.

@Stiven23, Welcome to the HP Support Community!  

  

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding the BIOS rollback, Out of curiosity, why do you wish to roll it back? because based on your answer I can work on an apt solution for you, since there's no way to roll it back as off now.
