Build 22621 "Standard hardware security not supported" In Device Security


Recommended Posts

Yesterday I noticed that Core Isolation and and core security information are missing from Device security.

 

Updated 5 PCs, all 5 PCs are fully windows 11 compatible with TPM2.0, Secure boot and everything... and all 5 that I upgraded so far, have the same exact issue.

Windows Security says I don't have standard hardware security, while MS info shows that its running.

 

I found similar issues in feedback hub, but those complaints where from 22200 (21H2) build from long time ago, there are few people complaining about the new 22621 too.

Core Isolation is dependent on hardware VT, not TPM. Check the bios settings.

Hardware virtualization is running...

and hardware virtualization on or not.. the device security tab in windows security should show security processor aka the TPM.

Windows 11 21H2 for comparison...

in Windows 11 22H2, it shows neither.

Do you have Hypervisor Platform installed? I’m going off memory; I’m not at my computer yet.  

So... what you're trying to get back, is what I have pictured?

 

Possible that you, like the others ran into an interesting bug as it were.. where every app you use to check shows you're running all the necessary requirements and Windows just isn't cooperating with it. Wouldn't be the first time. 

 

Funny enough.. when I recently upgraded my video card, or any time I upgrade hardware... I run Hardware-Info or HWInfo64 to double check specs and features. It showed me, that somehow.. AMD-V and Secure Boot was in the "red", in other words.. they are there but not enabled. Apparently got turned off when I updated the BIOS... and Windows never even blinked. Nothing reminded me that the security features for 11 were turned off. Made zero sense.

 

So... I go by third party apps to double check system protection items as well as making sure, like you did.. to double check with other machines that run similar hardware.

all u have to do is have 1 unsuported feature and it will say that

 

Standard hardware security not supported

This means that your device does not meet at least one of the requirements of standard hardware security.

 

my pc is also windows 11 compat and that also says the same thing

it was fine in 21H2. all 5 PCs that I upgraded where fine in 21H2.

 

Now all 5 in 22H2 are not.

 

 

according to Microsoft https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/device-protection-in-windows-security-afa11526-de57-b1c5-599f-3a4c6a61c5e2#hardwarescore

 

Your device meets the requirements for standard hardware security

This means your device supports memory integrity and core isolation and also has:

TPM 2.0 (also referred to as your security processor)        CHECK

Secure boot enabled                                                                CHECK

DEP                                                                                              CHECK

UEFI MAT                                                                                     CHECK

 

I rolled back to 22000, and everything is restored, same PC, not only do I meet the standard hardware security, I meet the enhanced hardware security

There is definitely  a bug in 22621 (final) 22H2 build.

there is a bug report about this on feedback hub

Expand  

I saw it... but that bug report was from 10+ months ago for 22000 build in early days...

Microsoft responded that it should be fixed in 22000.100, I guess they broke the same thing again.

 

Now few people added comments that same is happening on 22621

  • Like 2

Sounds like a bug related to something in your hardware set up.. seeing as others, like myself, aren't having that issue with 22621.

 

Fire up that report, add it to the MS list... let's see if they fix it here soon enough. I mean, we still have what, five months before it's released to the public?

Same problem bro. Will it get fixed or should I rollback too and can I roll back without any data loss? Thank you for bringing this up couldn't find anything about it anywhere.

Expand  

If you roll back, you won't loose any files but any programs that you installed or upgraded since the install of 22621 will probably be gone.

It seemed that there are two problems with Windows Security on 22621 for anyone "upgrading", device security not supported and the mising of App and Browser Control section, hope this will be fixed soon tbh

Expand  

just the windows security section of settings got screwed up, according to msinfo all the security options were still running, you just lost info and control of it.

Hello, I am new here, I have come to this post looking for information about this problem, my laptop meets all the requirements, including enhanced security, and I also have this problem after installing 22h2, I have already sent a report to Microsoft, I It happens exactly the same as nekrosoft13, greetings from Spain.

Thank you so much bro. I'll just let it run they'll probably fix it when the stable version drops.

We have posted the news so Microsoft should be aware of the issue by now. I believe they will re-fix the issue soon. 🙂

so it seems no update for 22621 today?

 

nvm, they did release one https://msbuilds.rg-adguard.net/GetInfo?id=1203f71f-b8a9-4bf2-a4ee-390f5cb8b207

 

Any idea if this fixes this misreporting?

I'm on 22621.160 (Beta) and the problem is still there for sure. There is also 22621.105 for Release Preview so it would be nice if someone check that version.

I'm on the release preview. The problem persists for now. It's not fixed yet anywhere that means bummer.

    • Windows 11 KB5060826 optional update brings better Setup, new data migration tool, more by Sayan Sen Alongside KB5060829 for Windows 11 24H2, Microsoft has also released its C-release non-security preview update for Windows 11 23H2 and 22H2 today. The new update is rolling out under KB5060826 (builds 22621.5549 and 22631.5549). KB5060826 brings an upgraded Setup which will now let admins choose whether to deploy critical updates during the OOBE (the initial out-of-box experience setup on Windows). Alongside that, it also adds the new PC migration experience on Windows Backup, as well as the default app changes related to the European Economic Area (EEA) region. The full changelog is given below: First up we have the changes and improvements for Gradual Rollout: [App defaults] New! We are rolling out some small changes in the European Economic Area (EEA) region for default browsers through the Set default button in Settings > Apps > Default apps: Additional file and link types will be set for the new default browser, if it registers them. The new default browser will be pinned to the Taskbar and Start menu unless you choose not to pin it by clearing the checkboxes. There is now a separate one-click button for browsers to change your .pdf default, if the browser registers for the .pdf file type. [PC Migration] New! The PC-to-PC migration experience in Windows is starting to roll out. You’ll begin to see the landing and the pairing page in the Windows Backup app, giving you a first look at what’s coming. In the full experience, you’ll be able to transfer files and settings from an old PC to a new one during setup. Support for this feature during PC setup will arrive in a future update. The rollout is being introduced in phases to support a smooth experience. [Windows Share] ​​​​​​​New! When you share links or web content using the Windows share window, you will see a visual preview for that content. Up next, we have Normal Rollout features: [Windows Setup] New! Admins can configure whether a new device gets critical updates during the out-of-box experience (OOBE). The update has a single known issue related to Noto fonts. You can view the support article here on Microsoft's official website. The update can be obtained by clicking on "Check for optional updates" inside Windows Update. You can also download it manually from Microsoft Update Catalog website.
    • American? Yer whole 120v limitation is madness.  You can still get low powered pcs , nice, that'll do the job 
    • People want a resizable taskbar, not tiny icons on a fat one. Microsoft, you've done it again.
    • Windows 11 gets resizable taskbar icons, PC Migration tool, and more in KB5060829 by Taras Buria Windows 11 24H2 users, it is time for this month's non-security update. KB5060829 is here, and it has some long-requested taskbar updates, a new tool for transferring files between PCs, and a hefty list of other improvements. With KB5060829, build number 26100.4484, Microsoft is finally delivering the long-requested small taskbar icons, one of the missing Windows 10 taskbar features. However, with Windows 11, Microsoft gives users more flexibility: you can have your taskbar as is, make icons smaller as the taskbar gets full, or keep icons small all the time. Neat! Additionally, a new PC Migration app is available, which enables transferring files from one PC to another during the initial setup. However, in a somewhat confusing move, all users receive only the landing page and the pairing page. The actual capability is coming in a future update. Other changes include performance improvements in File Explorer for handling large archives, fixes for display flashing, new accessibility features, and more. Here is the complete changelog (gradual rollout): [App defaults] New! We are rolling out some small changes in the European Economic Area (EEA) region for default browsers through the Set default button in Settings > Apps > Default apps: Additional file and link types will be set for the new default browser, if it registers them. The new default browser will be pinned to the Taskbar and Start menu unless you choose not to pin it by clearing the checkboxes. There is now a separate one-click button for browsers to change your .pdf default, if the browser registers for the .pdf file type. [Click to Do (Preview)] New! Ask Microsoft 365 Copilot is a new action in Click to Do on Copilot+ PCs. Use it to send text or images to Microsoft 365 Copilot, which will respond to your questions. The Ask Microsoft 365 Copilot action requires a Microsoft 365 license and follows your organization’s privacy policies. [Narrator] New! The Screen Curtain feature in Narrator helps protect your privacy and improve focus by blacking out the screen while Narrator reads content aloud. This is especially helpful in public or shared spaces, where you can work with sensitive information without others seeing your screen. To turn on Narrator, press Ctrl + Windows + Enter. Then press Caps Lock + Ctrl + C to turn on Screen Curtain. While it’s on, you can use Narrator as usual with the screen hidden. Press Caps Lock + Ctrl + C again to turn it off. New! Narrator makes it easier to discover and learn about its features directly within the experience. Whether you're new or exploring advanced options, Narrator will guide you through the latest updates using a series of steps and prompts that explain each new feature and change. [PC Migration] New! The PC-to-PC migration experience in Windows is starting to roll out. You’ll begin to see the landing and the pairing page in the Windows Backup app, giving you a first look at what’s coming. In the full experience, you’ll be able to transfer files and settings from an old PC to a new one during setup. Support for this feature during PC setup will arrive in a future update. The rollout is being introduced in phases to support a smooth experience. [Settings] New!​​​​​​​ The Settings homepage managed by IT admins now includes cards tailored for enterprise use. These include familiar options like "Recommended settings" and "Bluetooth devices" along with other new cards for device info and accessibility preferences. If a user signs in with both a work or school account and Microsoft account, an additional account card appears to show both account types. New! The country or region selected during device setup now appears under Settings > Time & language > Language & region. Fixed: The storage card in Settings > System > About shows an incorrect or unreadable character instead of the proper disk size. [Taskbar & System Tray] New!​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​The taskbar now resizes icons to fit more apps when space runs low, keeping everything visible and easy to access. You can adjust how icons appear in settings—reduce icon size only when the taskbar is full (default), keep icons at their original size at all times by selecting Never, or use smaller icons all the time by selecting Always. To change this setting, right-click an empty area on the taskbar, select Taskbar settings, expand the Taskbar behaviors section, and choose your preference under Show smaller taskbar buttons. New! In addition to the new grouping of the Accessibility menu in Quick settings, there are text descriptions for the assistive technologies like Narrator, Voice access, and more for easier identification and learning. New! Adjusted the indicator (pill) under taskbar apps to make it wider and more visible.​​​​​​​ Fixed: WIN + CTRL + Number doesn't work anymore for switching windows of an open app in the taskbar.​​​​​​​ Fixed: When using taskbar in Windows, the media controls that appear in the preview windows for apps might unexpectedly flicker. [Voice Access] New! You can now use Voice access to navigate, dictate, and interact with Windows using voice commands in Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Japanese. New! You can add custom words to the dictionary in voice access. The feature will be available in all the currently supported voice access languages. [Windows Share] ​​​​​​​New! When you share links or web content using the Windows share window, you'll see a visual preview for that content. New! In the Windows share window, you can select a compression level—High, Medium, or Low Quality—when editing and sharing images, instead of selecting from a 0–100 scale. [Color] Improved: Adjusted the location of the intensity and color boost sliders under Settings > Accessibility > Color Filters, so the color previews at the top of the page remain visible while adjusting the sliders. [File Explorer] Improved: Performance has been enhanced when extracting archive files - this will particularly help in the case of copy pasting large numbers of files out of large 7z or .rar archives. [Graphics] Improved: Made underlying changes to enhance display related user experiences, including reducing screen flashing during certain display configuration transitions and eliminating unnecessary display resets that occurred in some cases​​​​​​​. Fixed: Some displays might be unexpectedly green. Fixed: If User Account Control (UAC) is set to Always Notify and the button under Settings > System > Display color calibration is selected for your display and canceled, Settings will stop responding. [Input] Fixed: Typing in Japanese with the touch keyboard might stop working after switching to typing with an English keyboard and then switching back. [MSFTEdit.dll] Fixed: Some apps like Sticky Notes and dxdiag might stop responding when the display language is set to Arabic or Hebrew display. [Quick Settings] Fixed: The top three buttons in the top row don’t respond when selecting to enable or disable them. [Printing] Fixed: Printed lines might be unexpectedly thicker than expected. [Scripting] Fixed: Running a script on a remote Server Message Block (SMB) share might take an unexpectedly long time if the share is hosted on an older Windows Server version like Windows Server 2019. [Windowing] ​​​​​​​Fixed: When you press ALT + Tab to switch out of a full screen game, other windows like Windows Terminal might stop responding. Fixed: An underlying issue might lead to unexpected changes to window size and position after sleep and resume on some devices. Fixed: Explorer.exe might stop working unexpectedly when a window is dragged, if window snapping is enabled. And here is what is available to all users right away: [Copilot] Fixed: Improved the Copilot key’s reliability and resolved an issue that prevented users from restarting Copilot after using the key. [Performance] Fixed: This update addresses an issue to maintain efficiency of Storage Spaces Direct (S2D). When running complex software defined data center (SDDC) related workflows, it’s possible the system might become unresponsive. [Storage optimization] Fixed: An issue that prevented unused language packs and Feature on Demand packages from being fully removed, which led to unnecessary storage use and longer Windows Update installation times. [Windows Hello] Fixed: This update addresses an issue that prevented the automatic renewal of expiring certificates in Windows Hello for Business. [Windows Search] ​​​​​​​Fixed: Windows Search responds very slowly—Search can take over 10 seconds to load before you can use it. Fixed: This update enhances the reliability of Windows Search and resolves an issue that prevented users from typing in Windows Search in some cases. Known issues remain the same: there is a bug where Windows 11 renders Noto fonts poorly in Chromium-based browsers when the display scaling is set to 100%. A temporary workaround is to set the scaling to 125% or higher. You can download KB5060829 by heading to Settings > Windows Update. Alternatively, get it from the Microsoft Update Catalog using this link.
    • 4TB 2TB WD_BLACK SN8100 Gen5 NVMe 2280 SSDs are nice deals for sure by Sayan Sen Storage comes in different forms, both fast and slow, large and small. For example, the Seagate Exos 20TB and BarraCuda 16 TB are high-capacity CMR hard disk drives, and they are currently still selling at great prices. On the other hand, we have SSDs, which are much faster. The SK hynix P41 Platinum, for example, is a PCIe 4.0 drive and it is up for grabs at $120. If you need something faster, then take a look at Western Digital (WD) options, wherein we have the SN8100 PCIe Gen5 NVMe SSD at the lowest prices of just $480 for the 4TB variant and $260 for the 2TB variant (purchase links down below). Since this is a PCIe 5.0 SSD it is very fast, but like other Gen5 drives, it gets very hot especially for sustained reads and writes. So a heatsink is definitely recommended. The S8100 promises sequential reads of up to 14900 MB/s and sequential writes of up to 14,000 MB/s. In terms of random reads, it is rated for 2.3 million IOPS (input output operations per second) and random writes of up to 2.4 million IOPS. There are two reasons for the high random throughputs, first is the DRAM, as the SN8100 packs its own DRAM cache instead of relying on system memory, and second, the relatively new NAND technology called CMOS directly bonded to array (CBA) that helps boost interface speed. Speaking of NAND, the SN8100 features TLC, or triple-level, cells which provides excellent endurance and this 4TB drive is rated for 2400 TBW, while the 2TB is at 1200 TBW.
