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.

    Janruary 17, still broken. I did a reset yesterday, not knowing this would happen. I seriously hope Microsoft will fix this soon, it is driving me crazy, I did everything, driver check with Command Prompt (didnt find anything), I checked all the requirements I need to have the options for Device Security, they are all enabled. Still broken, very annoying.

    Try reinstalling Windows Security Platform with the new update. Download from this link the folder that contains the application:

    https://app.box.com/s/8br9g6arlce8pgxx5hmh6t1jcv4zj2s0

    Now follow these steps:

    1. Create a restore point first
    2. Unzip the downloaded ZIP file on the Desktop
    3. Navigate to the location C:\Windows\System32\SecurityHealth to take ownership of that folder:

    Properties > Security > Advanced Options > Change > Administrators

    Check the "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects" box and click Apply.

    In the "SecurityHealth Permissions" window select Administrators > Full Control. Apply.

    1. Copy the "1.0.2207.20002-0" folder on the Desktop to the SecurityHealth folder
    2. Open the folder and run the application "Microsoft.SecHealthUI_8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx" as administrator to update.
    3. Restart the computer.

    This is tempting but I have seen people that have ruined thier system by changing ownership of files and whatever, I know this solution works but I am not risking ruining my pc. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

    I understand. I took the risk and was successful. It is basically a Windows Security app no longer in the Microsoft Store. Hopefully a resolve will be in a Windows Update.
