HP Recommended
Product: HP 350
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am trying to automate the process of converting HP computers from BIOS to UEFI. The HP 350 laptop supports UEFI, but when I try to change it using the BiosConfigurationUtility it throws and error code 6 at me. I get the same when trying to do this in WMI directly with powershell.

 

The BIOS is password protected and I am providing the correct password (a password file in the case of the BCU).

 

Is there a way I can automate this change?
