The initialization of the PSD access failed - this may be because the TPM component on your PC is disabled, uninstalled, or not functioning correctly.

An Security Platform Services connection failed (0xe0283103). Yes, it says "An", not "A".
| The typical "answer" to this "problem" if you ask google is 1) reinstall windows or 2) uninstall the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) software. You may read that it is an "extra" driver you accidentally installed.
Not true.
These errors come when you have installed the TPM but have not enabled the BIOS settings that activate it.
To get rid of these errors and take advantage of the added Trusted Platform Module (TPM) functionality, you need to activate TPM in your BIOS.
