6. The client device will automatically be checked for potential issues that may
affect the BIOS flashing procedure. Serious risk of data loss may occur if you
proceed without resolving these issues. Carefully review the
Status Check
,
BitLocker Risk
,
Auto Backup Risk
, and
fTPM Risk
columns before
proceeding.
For
Status Check
issues, confirm if the ASUS Control Center Express
agent on the client device is updated to version 1.6.3 or later.
• For
BitLocker Risk
issues, confirm if BitLocker is suspended on the
client device. Proceeding anyway may trigger BitLocker encryption that is
irreversible without the BitLocker recovery key.
• For
fTPM Risk
issues, confirm if fTPM is disabled on the client device.
Proceeding anyway may irreversibly erase fTPM security data.
• For
Auto Backup Risk
issues, ASUS Control Center was not able
to automatically backup the BitLocker recovery keys. It is strongly
recommended to manually back up the BitLocker recovery keys before
proceeding. Refer to Microsoft documentation on BitLocker for more
information.
