Did you manually update your Secure Boot Keys ?


Okay, thank you. So rn i shouldnt get that error in event viewer yea
An 1801 error? I think it will persist since it's not generated from actually looking at firmware to see if you have the keys. I think it's generated from a Registry setting that's telling it something that makes it report that.

But it's irrelevant. Ignore it, like all the other errors and warnings we get for the things that Windows does wrong and then fails to another way of doing it. At some point it will probably go away too.

If you're not having any problems, I'd recommend not looking at Event Logs. There is so much useless and misleading information presented that it's hard to separate the wheat from the chaff.

Thank you for this thread, I have not updated my DBX yet since I am scared atm about the NVIDIA issue unless Asus or Nvidia provides a new GOP udpate for the RTX 3060 on ROG G513RM:
View attachment 153126

Looks like you have all the 2023 certificates installed. Is your device running 24H2 or 25H2, my guess is 25H2 based on the last two lines of your screenshot? I wouldn't worry about the DBX, leave that to MS.

Correct, I have installed 25H2 on my ROG G513RM:

I have an HP Elitebook 8470P (10+ year old machine) that won't allow me to install the latest certs. I guess I'll simply have to disable Seure Boot on that machine.

Just out of curiosity, anyone else running into machines that cannot be updated?

Dell has published a knowledge base article about the 2011 certificate expiration (this concerns Windows 10 and 11):

In it, there's a list of computers that is updated monthly. Mine isn't there, but I hope it will be if things go wrong with Mosby.

I haven't read the entire thread, but I just saw that NVIDIA GPUs will be affected. After a quick search, there's a thread on Reddit. Someone contacted Palit, who replied that NVIDIA was working with Microsoft on this issue:
I also hope there will be a vBIOS with a 2023 certificate. My Dell has an NVIDIA 1060.

Disabling Secure Boot as a solution for computers that support Windows 11 is disappointing.

It's late, I'm going to sleep.
Same, since for laptops GPU is not replaceable/soldered and this will cause more issues if OEMs and NVIDIA will not act quickly about providing new vBIOS that is signed with the 2023 certificate:

Someone posted yesterday about the same problem on an older HP machine. I'm thinking HP locks the BIOS down, and with no further updates, it's problematic.

Yep, My machine (My Computers, system 1), which is Secure Boot enabled, was made in 2016 and this HP page says "Platforms released in 2017 and earlier do not receive a BIOS update related to this change, because HP no longer supports those platforms."

Interesting. I guess I got lucky on a couple of other machines. I have a 2016 HP and a 2017 HP both of which I was able to update successfully.

Were you able to get the 2023 KEK certificate to install?

Yep, My machine (My Computers, system 1), which is Secure Boot enabled, was made in 2016 and this HP page says "Platforms released in 2017 and earlier do not receive a BIOS update related to this change, because HP no longer supports those platforms."
I have an HP Pavilion laptop built in 2016 and Microsoft was was able to push 2023 keys into firmware, I'm pretty sure even the KEK which surprised me.

The BIOS's Secure Boot settings are extremely limited but I seem to recall it has one for deleting all keys and one for restoring defaults. So it also looks like I could use MOSBY, which is what I was planning if the Microsoft "push" hadn't worked, especially with the KEK.

I think MS can create all the keys and push them to devices, except the KEK, which requires an OEM to push a BIOS firmware update out. .

MS can also push KEK as long as OEM has signed it with their PK and gave it back to MS.

As I understand it, Microsoft provided 2023 KEK certificates to the OEM's who were to sign it with all of their machine PK's, then return it to Microsoft. Microsoft could then push it into firmware along with the others.

If the OEM provides a machine BIOS with full Secure Boot key control you can also append a public KEK (unsigned, downloaded from Microsoft's GitHub) and the BIOS will sign it with the machine's PK. But that's way too much to expect from HP.
