TPM

This setting enables or disables the security controller known as TPM

(Trusted Platform Module).

Clear TPM Owner

This setting is used to erase the data in TPM when disposing of the

computer or when the owner of the computer changes, etc. Once this

operation is carried out, the TPM configuration settings are erased, such

that the encrypted data can no longer be decrypted and the files can no

longer be read. Please backup or delete the data as necessary before

carrying out this operation.
The operating procedure is as follows:
1. Move the cursor to the Clear TPM Owner setting and press the Space

key.

2. A message is displayed. Press the Y, E, S, and Enter keys and the

TPM information is erased.

3. The TPM setting changes from being displayed as Enable to Disabled,

and the setting is no longer displayed.

from the TOSHIBA Application Installer.

Please ensure that the user reads the Infineon TPM Installation

Guide as it contains usage information and notes on using TPM.
