I have a HP laptop. I want to update it's BIOS but when I try to use the sp111733.exe, it says "the BIOS update is blocked on this device". If I use a flash drive, it opens up three files in UEFI hardware diagnostics and if I click on one of em, it says that the BIOS isn't intended for this device. Please help.
