System Testing with Secure Boot
In some cases, having Secure Boot enabled on a test computer can cause the HLK Client installation to fail. You should not see this failure on Windows RT devices, but might see them on non-Windows RT devices. Follow these steps to ensure proper installation:
For system tests and non-class driver device tests
Disable Secure Boot protections.
For x86/x64, enter the BIOS configuration and disable Secure Boot.
For Windows RT, install the Windows Debug Policy; you don't need to disable Secure Boot.
Note
Only OEMs and Microsoft can perform this step.
Install the Windows HLK Client software.
Run the following applicable tests for the test platform:

Enter the BIOS configuration, enable Secure Boot, and restore Secure Boot to the Default configuration. For Windows RT devices, remove the secure boot debug policy.
Run the rest of the HLK tests.
Enter the BIOS configuration and clear the Secure Boot configuration. This restores the system to Setup Mode by deleting PK and other keys.
Note
Support for clearing is required for x86/x64 and prohibited for production Windows RT devices.
Run the Secure Boot Manual Logo Test.
For devices that use drivers on Windows RT
Install the Windows HLK Client software.
Run device tests for only your devices.
Note
System tests and tests that use drivers that are not signed by Microsoft will fail.
