Thank you for your answer.
However, I have to agree with the other person asking 

 

>> I am not too sure how to deinstall it as it doesn't show up in the installed application at windows 11  or under a specific name ?

 

So, how can I deinstall UEFI ?

Or can I simply run the dowloaded new UEFI exe to replace it? I don't want to destroy something... 

 

Thanks in advance

Alex

Yes.

 

You can do that. It won't destroy anything.

Hi Enrico,

 

as you had proposed, I re-installed on my Windows 11 Laptop the Hardware Diagnostics UEFI tool v 10.7.0.0.

Still, it asks for an update and if I continue as proposed, it says  "TAR file couldn't be downloaded".

Any other idea?
