I have the security Action badge indicating to me that Windows security Action is required.
I open up by clicking the badge and see the notice that the Local Security Authority Protection is required to be turned on and restart the computer to which I perform those two actions.
After my computer is reloaded the Security Badge still requires me to turn Local Security Authority Protection on, as I have already done.

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Kenneth in my case there was no core isolation dialogue to be found.
Until I enabled virtualization (SVM) in the BIOS on the PC that option simply wasn't there in the first place. After that I was able to toggle the switch off and back on, then reboot, and the issue was cleared up.

Here is what I did to get the monkey badge off my computer. I went into the security and clicked dismiss. To this day no badge has reappeared.

How is your average end user going to have a clue here?
A requirement to go into the BIOS to enable SVM in order to clear the error. And zero indicator on the client side what you need to do here or how to do it. Is the average user going to know how to get into the BIOS and resolve this?
Seems like a fumble to me. I'm sure there was some note somewhere in the security update documentation. But who the hell reads that stuff? On a practical level, this seems like it was poorly handled to me.
Thanks for the info though btw.
This suddenly started to pop on my system tray recently.
Enabling SVM in the BIOS allowed me to disable, then re-enable this and clear the error.
MS did something that suddenly required SVM to be enabled and if it wasn't then you got this LSA error in the security center showing up. Previous to this, I had SVM off and it worked just fine no errors.
Without SVM turned on I couldn't even access the core isolation details and flip the slider switch for this.
