Hello everyone and thank you in advance for the help. I've bought a used surface pro 4 which was victim of the microsoft me update. It is stuck at the version in the photo attached.(latest version should be SurfaceME_11.8.86.3877) I've read in other threads how to dump the bios in order to fix the me region but i can't get the program to do it(Error 79: Fail to read FW Status Register value) even in efi mode. @plutomaniac @Lost_N_BIOS I'm tagging you since i saw you are very active in this topic.
Many thanks!!
