My Windows 11 Security states that there are errors on my Local Security Authority Protection.

The info that is given is that no TPM it there. Yet, there is.

I also got this message on other (Intel) computer, and after checking and double-checking I decided to Dismiss this error.

Is this a (known) bug on Windows 11, 22H2 with all latest updates installed?

Yup, it's a known bug and there have been several Neowin articles about it. I thought that a fix had been released but it may be limited to release preview or beta builds for the moment.

Fairly sure it's unfixed in Beta.

Yes, it's back, returned to both of my (officially supported) W11 machines yesterday, but not the unofficially supported one. So I'm not sure what's going on there...

I guess it's the Microsoft way of "fixing".

1. It works
2. Let's break it with an update
3. Let's fix it
4. Let's break it again
5. Let's fix it with another update

(repeat steps 4 & 5 indefinitely)

I think the OP is experiencing two different bugs here. The article that is posted here in Neowin relates to the error with the Local Security Authority Protection bein off. ( I even experienced that myself, but it was fixed in one of my PCs, yet not in the other). Yet the OP is seeing an error related to no TPM module detected as well.

OP might want to refresh his Windows TPM settings.  Here's how.

Additionally you might want to make sure Secure Boot is enabled on your BIOS / UEFI.

Because I have Linux also installed in dual boot and have disabled Secure Boot at times, I have then experienced that TPM error on Windows 11.

TPM is on.

It's the message in Windows Security that tells me it's off [not true]. And the bug came back.

I'm seeing the same exact screens, preceded by:

Yes, MS doing what they do best. They break something, fix it, and then break it again later.

 

But with MS being a small indie developer, its to be expected. /s

See frontpage news:   Microsoft admits it couldn't really fix Windows 11 Security and Defender LSA issues :D

And my question: Is disabling kernel mode better than just click “ Dismiss” and not be bothered by this message?
For security-sake I mean...

The issue for some people appears to be that it's causing a BSOD rather than just an annoying message so disabling Kernal mose is a sensible setp. Personally I use my machine primarily for gaming and most of the virtualisation based security (kernel mode isolation, memory integrity etc) causes a loss of performance for what at best is a negligable gain in security on a system not containing sensitive information so I've disabled all such features. On my work machine/networks I administer they're all turned on!

Even with the Moment 3 update and all, it's still not fixed.

Wake up Microsoft!? Or does this have more impact than expected on how Windows and its security management/Windows Security behaves in W11?
Or maybe with next week's Patch Tuesday it'll be fixed?

Maybe they really do fix things based on throwing darts while wearing a blindfold???😵

okay so MS says it is fixed now https://www.neowin.net/news/microsoft-finally-manages-to-fix-windows-11-defender-local-security-authority-protection-off/

@kiddingguywhat do you think?

It looks like it's solved. I think from server-side, because I haven't installed the Patch Tuesday updates not yet [doing it now].

It would have come in as a Defender update, not a patch Tuesday update.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By +samw61 · Posted

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
