Initializing the TPM chip

When you use the TPM function for the first time or you want to

register the user again, you have to initialize the TPM chip.

Initializing the TPM chip erases all authentication

information saved on the TPM chip. Any decision to

initialize must be taken carefully.
To initialize the TPM chip again while the TPM function is

in use, you have to decrypt any existing files and folders

encrypted by the TPM function first. Otherwise, you

will not be able to access the files and folders after re-

initialization.

1

Restart the computer.

When the Samsung logo screen appears, press the F2 key

repeatedly.

Configuration.
