Q (551):
Microsoft will update the Secure Boot certificates. What do I need to do?(3/16/2026)
A:You only need to follow one of the update methods below and wait for the new Windows Boot Manager to take effect:
Method 1: Update through Windows Update
If Windows Update is turned on and Secure Boot is enabled (see "How to enable Secure Boot”), supported Windows devices will automatically download and install the new Secure Boot certificates and the new Boot Manager.
Since 2024, Microsoft has been rolling out the new Secure Boot database update in phases. All devices with Secure Boot enabled will receive the update automatically before the certificate expires in June 2026.
With default settings, users usually do not need to do anything manually. Just keep Windows Update enabled and wait for the update to install automatically.
Method 2: Manually update the UEFI / BIOS
Note:After updating the BIOS, the system may ask for your BitLocker recovery key to unlock Windows.
You may also choose to turn off Device Encryption and Standard BitLocker Encryption before updating the BIOS, then turn them back on afterward to keep your data safe.
If your device cannot get the update through Windows Update, you can download and install the latest UEFI BIOS from the official website to get the updated Secure Boot certificates.
1. Visit the ASRock official website, search for your motherboard model, and download the latest UEFI BIOS from the support page.
2. Clear the Secure Boot keys.
① After updating the BIOS and rebooting, enter BIOS Setup and go to:
Advanced \ Security > Secure Boot
② If Secure Boot Mode is set to Standard, change it to Custom.
③ Select Key Management.
④ Select Clear Secure Boot Keys, then choose [Yes].
⑤ Confirm that all UEFI Secure Boot keys (PK, KEK, DB, DBX) have been cleared.
3. Install the default Secure Boot keys.
① After clearing the keys, select Install Default Secure Boot Keys, then choose [Yes].
② Confirm that the Size/Number of Keys for PK / KEK / DB / DBX is not 0, and the Key Source shows [Factory]. This means the Secure Boot key update is complete.
4. How to check the Secure Boot key status?
① In BIOS, go to: Security > Secure Boot > Key Management
② Select Key Exchange Keys (KEK) choose "Details”:
③ Make sure that KEK Management contains:
- Microsoft Corporation KEK 2K CA 2023

Q (548):
Some new games like Battlefield 6 or Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 require Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 to provide kernel level anti cheat protection. How do I enable these options on ASRock AM4 motherboards?(10/3/2025)
A:On recent platforms such as AMD 800 and AMD 600 series, Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 are enabled by default. With these platforms, there is no need to change BIOS settings.
However, if you are still using an AM4 motherboard, Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 might not be enabled. Also, the TPM firmware might have to be updated.
Before enabling Secure Boot, you must check your disk partition style and BIOS settings to ensure they meet the requirements for Secure Boot.
Secure Boot System Requirements
1. Partition Style: GPT (GUID Partition Table). If the disk is MBR (Master Boot Record), please convert it to GPT.
2. BIOS Mode: UEFI only. Legacy or CSM mode doesn't support secure boot.
How to check if the current partition type supports Secure Boot
1. Right-click the Windows button on the desktop and select "Disk Management”.
2. Right-click the disk where Windows is installed and select the ""Properties"".
3. Click the "Volumes” tab and check if the partition style is "GPT”.
GPT partition style can support Secure Boot. You can skip below steps 4-7.
4. If the partition style is "MBR”, please make a backup of important data on the system and refer to steps 5-7 to convert the partition style to GPT.
If you have multiple OS installations or if some system partition is on a different drive than where the OS is, the conversion might not have the desired result. Please backup your DATA and reinstall the OS.
5. Type "CMD" in the Windows search bar, right-click on "Command Prompt” and choose to run as administrator.
6. Type the command "mbr2gpt /convert /allowFullOS” to convert the partition style and press [Enter].
7. Restart the system, and the BIOS Mode/Partition style will be converted to UEFI/GPT.
Switching to UEFI Mode and Enabling Secure Boot in BIOS
1. Please press the "F2” key during POST to enter BIOS setup.
Go to Boot\CSM (Compatibility Support Module) and set "CSM” to "Disabled”.
Press the "F10” key to save configuration changes.
2. Go to Security\Secure Boot and set "Secure Boot Mode” to "Custom”.
3. Please press "Install default Secure Boot keys” and select "Yes” to install Secure Boot keys. If at this point this option is greyed out, Secure Boot key have been loaded already.
4. Set "Secure Boot” to "Enabled”. Then press the "F10” key to save configuration changes.
5. After the system restarts, go to Security\Secure Boot, and make sure that Secure Boot is showing "Active”.
Update BIOS and AMD fTPM
To ensure compatibility between games and Secure Boot/TPM 2.0, ASRock has released new BIOS versions for AM4 motherboards, to update to AMD fTPM 3.x.2.x version.
Type "TPM.msc" in the Windows search bar to find the current fTPM version.
If your current fTPM version is 3.x.0.x, we recommend updating to the latest BIOS version to get the fTPM update. This BIOS version should help you to enable anti-cheat on for example Battlefield 6 or Call of Duty:Black Ops 7.
fTPM 3.*.2.* (TPMB) Information
AMD has informed us that only CPUs with below former codename support fTPM 3.*.2.* (TPMB).
If your CPU is not in the supported CPU lineup for TPMB compatibility, based on AMD's official specifications, your CPU does not meet the security requirements necessary for your game.
