![]() *** I normally run a minimal cleanup of my disk once a week using the Custom Clean feature of CCleaner Free Portable. The WhyNot Win 11 utility shows my system can be upgraded to Win 11 but I have configured my Local Group policy Editor (Computer Configuration | Administrative Templates | Windows Components | Windows Update | Windows Update for Business | Select the Target Feature Update) to stay on Win 10.According to my notes I didn’t make any changes to my system on 1 (at least nothing I’m aware of) other than updating two portable apps, CrystalDiskInfo Portable 8.17.11 and Clear Disk Info Portable 4.0.0, on my USB removable thumb drive.System File Checker (sfc /scannow) and DISM scans (e.g., DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth) do not find any problems with my system files.I updated Win 10 Pro OS from v21H2 (Build 19044.2251) to v22H2 (Build 19045.2251) on 0 and thought that had solved my problem but one new error occurred five days later on 1.The November 2022 Patch Tuesday updates on my Win 10 v21H2 laptop (which included KB5019959 / OS Build 19044.2251) installed successfully on 1.I’ve looked in Task Scheduler and can’t find a scheduled task at Task Scheduler Library | Microsoft | Windows | TPM that is launching FirmwareTPM.exe or has a Last Run Time that corresponds to an error.Event Viewer states the faulting application path is always C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\inv xxxx_tmp\FirmwareTPM\FirmwareTPM.exe (where “ xxxx” is a unique string of alphanumerics for each APPCRASH) and the faulting module is VCRUNTIME140.dll v2.0.I’ve looked in the obvious locations (e.g., C:\Program Files, C:\Windows, etc.) and can’t find a file called FirmwareTPM.exe.The TPM Management Console (tpm.msc) shows I currently have TPM v2.0 with manufacturer version 403.1.0.0 (Status: Ready for Use). I found one 0 thread in the Dell forum at 17 R4, firmwaretpm.exe stopped working that makes me suspect this error might be specific to Dell computers. ![]() I’ve attached a text file of my latest APPCRASH error from 1. It doesn’t seem to be causing any obvious problems but I’m wondering if anyone knows the purpose of this TPMFirmware.exe executable and whether it’s part of my Windows OS or some component of the one of the Dell utilities I have on my system. Since 1 I’ve been seeing an error for a TPMFirmware.exe v1.1.1.1 APPCRASH logged in my Win 10 Reliability Monitor that occurs every 1 to 5 days. I have a Dell Inspiron 5584 running Win 10 Pro v22H2.
