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.

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

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.

    • This super-powerful GaN charger with four ports is 50% off by Taras Buria Some time ago, I reviewed the Cuktech 10, a powerful 100W GaN charger with three ports. It left positive impressions, and since then, it has served me as my primary charger for my phone, watch, laptop, and tablet. Recently, Cuktech offered me the opportunity to take a look at the model 15, a more powerful 140W GaN charger, this time, with four ports. Right now, this powerful charger is available with a massive discount at just $50.99 (with coupon applied). The Cuktech 15 is the same as the Cuktech 10, just slightly bigger, more powerful, and with one extra port. It has a light metallic finish, but overall, it retains the brand's identity and features. The four ports are well spaced out, and the black plastic insert with a cyan rim has a ribbed texture for better grips. Although I live in Europe, Cuktech sent me a US variant with a retractable plug. Okay, I guess. The ability to retract the plug makes it extra portable, which is nice. A high-power 240W five-foot cable is also included. The charger measures 3.11 x 2.56 x 1.26 inches and weighs 0.737 lbs. The Cuktech 15 has four ports: two high-power Type-C ports, one Type-C port with a lower output, and one Type-A port. The first two Type-C ports can deliver a full 140W in single-port mode (PD 3.1 supported), which is nice—no asterisk or caveats here with combined power or something. If you need the full 140W for one device, you get it. Ports are capable of working in the following modes: Single-port Type-C1 / C2: 140W max 5V 2A, 5V 3A, 9V 3A, 11V 6.1A, 12V 3A, 15V 3A, 20V 5A, 28V 5A Type-C3: 33W max 5V 2A, 5V 2.4A, 9V 2A, 12V 1.5A, 11V 3A Type-A: 18W max 5V 2A, 5V 3A, 9V 2A, 12V 1.5A Multi-Port Type-C1 + C2: 100W + 33W or 65W + 65W Type-C1/C2 + Type-C3: 100W + 33W Type-C1/C2 + Type-A: 100W + 18W Type-C1 + Type-C2 + Type-C3: 65W + 60W + 7.5W or 45W + 45W + 18W Type-C1 + Type-C2 + Type-C3 + Type-A: 65W + 60W + 7.5W As you can see, the charger is pretty robust, and it can power two pretty powerful laptops at once and even have enough oomph to charge a smartphone, albeit at a lower power. Another thing worth mentioning is that the Cuktech 15 delivers "clean" power with pretty low pulsations at about 25-50 mV. The rule of thumb is that the lower the pulsations, the better the charger is for your device's battery health. In this area, Cuktech's charger does not disappoint, and they deliver way better results than 100 mV, which is considered a standard for a good charger. Cuktech uses gallium nitride technology, which enables smaller, more powerful and efficient charging. Speaking of efficiency, the charger is rated for 78% average or 64% at a 10% load. When charging at 120W, I received an average of 80-85%, which is good. Of course, when charging at peak power, it gets hot, but not too much. The Cuktech 15 140W usually costs $99.99, which is undoubtedly not cheap. However, right now, you can get it for half the price, which is a very good deal, considering you get a high-quality charger with plenty of ports and very high power output. Like with the Cuktech 10, you cannot go wrong with this one. CUKTECH 15 140W four-port GaN charger - $50.99 | 30% off + a 20% off coupon As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.

    • KDE's KClock is getting Wayland Picture-In-Picture support by David Uzondu The KClock app for KDE Plasma over the years has received a number of updates, like better integration with KRunner and a dedicated background service (kclockd) for managing alarms. Now, it looks like KDE devs want to add something cool: pop-out timers using the new Picture-in-Picture protocol for Wayland. Image: Kai Uwe Broulik This all started from a simple observation. Kai Uwe Broulik, a KDE developer, saw someone using a small timer window during a presentation and thought it was a good idea. The problem is that achieving this kind of "always on top" behavior is handled differently between the old X11 display server and the newer Wayland. With X11, an application could pretty much do whatever it wanted. If a program wanted to draw a drop-down menu, it would just create a borderless window, place it in a specific spot, and grab all user input. Wayland operates on a different philosophy. As Broulik notes, under Wayland, the application describes what it wants, and the compositor gets to decide how to handle it. A drop-down menu is an XDG Popup. The application tells the compositor which button spawned it, and the compositor handles the placement and behavior. This is much more secure and consistent. It also means an application cannot just decide to keep its window on top of everything else. This restriction prevents a web browser from implementing an overlay video player under Wayland. To get around this in a standardized way, a proper Wayland support model for Picture-in-Picture, or PiP, was needed. Enter the xx-pip-v1 protocol. It is a new protocol designed specifically for creating floating PiP windows, and KWin, Plasma's compositor, recently gained support for it. Because it is an experimental protocol, its use is gated behind an environment variable, KWIN_WAYLAND_SUPPORT_XX_PIP_V1. A new protocol is fine for demos, but it needs a real application to find its weaknesses. So Broulik implemented it in KClock. This work allows KClock to offer pop-out timers and even a pop-out stopwatch in a small PiP window. The user could get system-wide options to control where the PiP window appears, or if it appears at all, and have that setting apply to every single application that uses the protocol. You can check out the merge request on GitLab for more technical details about this feature.
