What is the installed operating system?

 

The most recent version is F.56 and it is from the end of 2020.

The available BIOS update downloads are at the link below.

My system is windows 10 x64.

The bitlocker is not present on my pc and I have disabled the defender but unfortunately it still does not allow it.

Did you run the downloaded BIOS update file as Admin? That should make a difference.

 

Or

 

Update the BIOS by way of the HP Support Assistant? That should be a viable option if it is installed.

So, the first option always gives me blocked option to upgrade.
While the second option, it doesn't detect that there are upgrades to be done rather it detects that the bios is updated. I also checked with HP PC Hardware Diagnostics and it always gives me the updated bios, however it is technically not updated.
