Product: Elitebook 850 G5
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
My organization uses Smartdeploy to image Elitebook 850 G5's
This week, I started noticing that just after a fresh image install, Secure Recovery will fire up at boot and yell at me because it can't find an operating system. There is a 4 digit code that it wants you to type.
I noticed that if I hit ESC, it will continue to boot as if nothing is wrong.
So far, the only work-around I've come up with is to just get into the BIOS and disable Secure Recovery.
The computers are imaged with Secure Boot disabled and Legacy boot enabled.
Thank you,
