The following table gives hints on how to use this wizard page.

Wizard Page Element Explanation
Broken hard disk or lost data
New Trusted Platform Module
New Security Platform to be initialized
Depending on the Security Platform state one of the following restoration reasons is selected:
 
  • Broken hard disk or lost data: The Security Platform does have an owner.
    This state typically occurs, if the Security Platform Solution is initialized and ready to use, but some user data is not accessible any more.
     
  • New Trusted Platform Module: The Security Platform does not have an owner, but old Security Platform settings or credentials are existing.
    This state typically occurs, if the Security Platform Solution Software had been installed before, and then the Trusted Platform Module was either replaced or reset in the BIOS.
     
  • New Security Platform to be initialized: The Security Platform does not have an owner. No old Security Platform settings or credentials could be found.
    This state typically occurs, if you are going to perform the restoration on a PC, on which the Security Platform Solution Software has not been installed before.

 Note, that you cannot change this selection.

The restoration reason is only displayed for users with administrative rights.
