Guide is very detailed and can be look overwhelming at first glance but it's easy and pretty straightforward.
You only need the part which applies to you and your device
Firmware link has one file in it.and well,it is the firmware file you need to update your device
Tool link includes the files you need to update your device using that firmware
highly recommended to read all and follow it to the latter inorder to avoid mistakes,you can brick your device

that being said,here is the oversimplified example,
download your bios file and ME Analyzer.if bios is in exe format extract it.you will see bin,rom or fd file,one those is the file you need.now drag it into ME analyzer exe.it will analyze and give you the information you need in order to find the right fimware file.
hints are sku,size,type.firmware file types are upd (update) ,rgn (region) and extr (extracted,considered dirty) (see my previous post,I have downloaded your bios,analyzed it and uploaded picture before commenting)
now download appropriate version of your management engine's tool and firmware files,unzip both. (exp. ME 9.1 1.5MB v9.1.40.1000 & ME System Tools v9.1 r7)
copy the firmware file,find FWUpdate folder inside the system tools.you may see two more inside,windows and dos.pick the windows.if you have found FWUpdLcl or FWUpdLcl64.exe you are in the right place.now paste the firmware file
run cmd with admin rights,open up the folder where the FWUpdLcl and the firmware is (cd C:\Users\your name\Downloads\ME System Tools v9.1 r7\FWUpdate\Windows)
run it with the command, FWUpdLcl -f your firmware's mane.bin
wait till it finished,restart,enjoy.you can use Intel's CSME Version Detection Tool to verify
then visit the other section to update your other devices,chipset,rapid storage etc.good luck

Me Analyzer works without pyhton.you simply drag and drop your bios file into MeAnalyzer.exe and it will show you the results.as the same suggest,it analyze and shows you the information you need to find the right firmware,what kind of engine you have
and yes,that's the correct sequence.file names are can be bit different though
C:\Users\yourname\Downloads\Intel ME System Tools v9.1 r7\FWUpdate\WIN64 in your case

you can find the rest of the firmware files in plutomaniac's firmware repository
Intel ME 9.1 Firmware Repository r21 in your case
read the guide again,then my summary (previous post),it will make more sense then

@vegzos => releases, check the rar-file.

Its a false alarm, allow it and add exception.

Hi @plutomaniac,

I need your assistance once again for v15.

Intel(R) ME Code Versions
BIOS Version X421EAY.212
MEI Driver Version 2047.100.0.1039
FW Version 15.0.10.1469 LP Consumer
LMS Version Not Installed

IUPs Information
PMC FW Version 150.1.20.1028
OEM FW Version 0.0.0.0000
IOM FW Version 17.14.0.0000
NPHY FW Version 11.220.194.0220
PCHC FW Version 15.0.0.1014

I am trying to create a new firmware as there is a new version for PHY and PMC for v15 TGP.
I am using the following binaries:

B1. (Converged Security) Management Engine - (CS)ME: CSME 15.0 Consumer LP B v15.0.10.1469 (15.0.10.1469_CON_LP_B_PRD_EXTR.bin)
B2. Power Management Controller - PMC: PMC TGP LP C (B) v150.1.20.1030 (TGP_150.1.20.1030_LP_C_PRD.bin)
B3. Platform Controller Hub Configuration - PCHC: PCHC TGP H/LP v15.0.0.1014 (TGP_15.0.0.1014_PRD.bin)
B4. USB Type C Physical - PHY: PHY P TGP v12.14.211.2011 (TGP_P_12.14.211.2011_PRD.bin)

When trying to create the image with FIT, I get the follow error:

Error 236: [Ifwi Actions] Failed to load input file. Format appears invalid: PHY Binary File: C:\1\Intel CSME System Tools v15.0 r3\Flash Image Tool\WIN32\TGP_P_12.14.211.2011_PRD.bin
Error 20: [Csme Binary Gen] Error executing pre-build actions.
Error 2: Failed to build.
Failed to build FWUpdate Image!

There are no errors if I do not add PHY P TGP v12.14.211.2011 (TGP_P_12.14.211.2011_PRD.bin).

I see that this PHY binary is for v12, but I am not certain if it is applicable or not.
The image prepared by you for v14 for instance does also have this v12 of PHY if I am not mistaken (whereas the other major versions show v14).
Do I need to check the main version of PHY (v11.xxx.xxx.xxx in my case) specifically and that can only be updated by another of the same major version (PHY v11.xxx.xxx.xxx)?

I believe this binary was only added recently, so last time I could not encounter this issue yet.
Apologies if I am confusing the version matching in this case.
I was not too sure even based on the instructions from "Warning for all CSME v13.30+" unfortunately, so I figured I should rather ask.

Thank you very much in advance.

@plutomaniac

Thank you very much!

If I may suggest, it would be nice if (commonly encountered) error messages of these tools would be added including the corresponding action for them.
For example, in this case it could be something like [Ifwi Actions] Failed to load input file. Format appears invalid: PHY Binary File --> Do not include the PHY binary when building the image.
Too bad that these tools do not come with such instructions by default.
All these generic error messages are not providing pretty much any useful information for newcomers at least.

I am certain that any such additional information (including multiple scenarios for same or similar error messages) in general would help a lot of people using your instructions.
That goes double if people have different understanding of instructions even though they may sound obvious for most of them.
Not to mention that you would not need to put effort into looking for something that may or may not be found.

Either way, your help is much appreciated!

Is it possible to upgrade a ME 8.1.x firmware to a later version, i.e. >8.1.x such as 9.x and so?

hello
@onuracengiz or another
I would like to skip the step of analyzing ME
I put the 2 files to flash here (menus in french because i'm french sorry) :
