HP ProtectTools TPM Firmware Update Utility—The tool provided through HP support Web site reports ownership required

Expected Behavior of TPM firmware Utility

The firmware upgrade tool allows the user to upgrade the firmware, both when there is and when there is not an endorsement key (EK) present. When there is no EK, no authorization is required to complete the firmware upgrade.

When there is an EK, a TPM owner must exist, since the upgrade requires owner authorization. After the successful upgrade, the platform must be restarted for the new firmware to take effect.

If the BIOS TPM is factory-reset, ownership is removed and firmware update capability is prevented until the Embedded Security Software platform and User Initialization Wizard have been configured.

*A reboot is always recommended after performing a firmware update. The firmware version is not identified correctly until after the reboot.
