WIndows 11 - Standard hardware security not supported

Anonymous

I am running Windows 11 Pro Version 10.0.22621 Build 22621 and for some reason Device Security is saying Standard hardware security not supported.

I have the following settings:

Secure Boot State - On

BIOS Mode - UEFI

tpm.msc - The TPM is ready for use.

DEP - On for all applications.

I also have SVM turned on and Windows Subsystem successfully running Ubuntu 20.04.

What am I doing wrong? Also I can't dismiss the Windows Security - Actions recommended for Device security.

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Security and privacy

    I found the fix on this site. I used it, it worked. I am on the latest build 22621.819. The file for Windows Security was missing in the Security Health folder for Device Security after the OCT WIN11update. I had Microsoft Security on my machine and was working until I did the WIN11 update last month. Windows Security disappeared, no longer an app or program and not in startup or system tray. It is not an app on the Microsoft Store (although I'm sure it once was), only Microsoft Defender is.

    3 resets, a clean install, the .iso method, in-place reinstalls and still had Windows Security issues. This fix reinstalled Windows Secuity as it is not in the MS Store. All is well.

    I reset windows to factory settings. At the time of reinstalling Windows, I had memory integrity turned off.
