Secure boot update HowTo


mfessler

Question

i have put this together as i had problems updating 2 desktops and 3 laptops.
which have now all had their Secure Boot Certs updated to the new 2023 secure boot cert
also the other post about this were getting very long and confusing.
this is in two parts. part A and part B.

Part A.
open a PowerShell as Admin
then copy and paste these two commands in this order.
thanks to @Brink tutorial.

1.
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecureBoot" -Name "AvailableUpdates" -Value 0x40
Click to expand...

then press enter

2.
Start-ScheduledTask -TaskName "\Microsoft\Windows\PI\Secure-Boot-Update"
Click to expand...

press enter and now restart your computer TWICE

once the system has restarted the second time open the Windows registry to this key
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecureBoot\Servicing

in the right window you will see ..
UEFICA2023Status which will show 'updating'
WindowsUEFICA2023Capable 0x00000001

close the registry and you can now begin part B.

######

Part B.
open a CMD Prompt as Admin
then copy and paste this command
thanks to @Scott

1. at the CMD Prompt as Admin
reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Secureboot /v AvailableUpdates /t REG_DWORD /d 0x5944 /f
Click to expand...

press enter and now close the CMD Prompt terminal

then open a PowerShell as Admin


2. within the PowerShell
Start-ScheduledTask -TaskName "\Microsoft\Windows\PI\Secure-Boot-Update"
Click to expand...

press enter and restart you computer.

Final Check once the system has restarted
open the registry and find this key (again)
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecureBoot\Servicing

in the right Window you will see ..
UEFICA2023Status which will now show 'Updated'
WindowsUEFICA2023Capable 0x00000002


your system is now updated to the new 2023 certs
if this post is in the wrong part of the Forum please move it to the correct one.

best of luck Steve ..
