I’ve updated my Windows 10 with Windows Update, then went to optional updates, and updated the drivers there also (there was an ASUSTeK Firmware update, which made me suspicious and I left it off). Then restarted laptop, and decided to update the ASUSTeK Firmware also. It asked for restart, and I restarted the laptop. Then at the very beginning it said something like “BIOS will be updated in 60 seconds” and there was Yes/No option. I chose No and the system booted into Windows again. Now there’s a “Restart required (Your PC needs to be restarted to finish setting up this device: System Firmware)” notification in the Windows notification area. I suppose that I’ll get the Yes/No option again if I restart/turn off and turn on my laptop again. Also, in Device Manager, there’s “System Firmware” entry with the exclamation mark inside a yellow triangle under Firmware.
I don’t want the BIOS to be updated. I want to somehow cancel the update.
My laptop is ASUS X509JA. I suppose it can be completely bricked with the update?
Is the update written on my SSD or on the BIOS itself? Will formatting/resetting my Windows 10 remove the scheduled update of BIOS?
Any experience?
Any ideas?
