Deployment Guide

Deprovision DDP|A-Managed Hardware

1. Launch DDP|A and click the Advanced tab.

2. Select Reset System. This will require that you enter any provisioned credentials to verify your identity. After DDP|A verifies the

credentials, DDP|A will perform the following actions:

• Remove all provisioned credentials from Dell ControlVault (if present)

• Remove Dell ControlVault owner password (if present)

• Remove all provisioned fingerprints from integrated fingerprint reader (if present)

• Remove all BIOS passwords (BIOS System, BIOS Admin, and HDD passwords)

• Clear the Trusted Platform Module

• Remove the DDP|A Credential Provider

Once the computer is deprovisioned, DDP|A restarts the computer to restore the Windows default credential provider.

Uninstall DDP|A

Once the authentication hardware is deprovisioned, uninstall DDP|A.

1. Launch DDP|A and perform a Reset System.

This will remove all DDP|A managed credentials and passwords and will clear the Trusted Platform Module (TPM).

2. Click Uninstall to launch the installer.

3. When the uninstall finishes, click Yes to restart.

NOTE: Removing DDP|A will also unlock the SED and remove the Preboot Authentication.
