Dell Trusted Device won't clear IoA warning.

Dell 7010, Indicators of Attack warning. I solved all issues found in Windows logs days ago. No new Indicators of Attack. But every reboot shows the same old Indicators of Attack from days ago. So I tried deleting all log entries about Dell Trusted Device, but after rebooting they are back in the log. There are no new log entries for errors or warnings. Dell Trusted Device continues to show Indicators of Attack. Where else can I look for the problem?

I did an OS complete reinstall using the SupportAssist OS Recovery in the BIOS menu. I selected delete all files and apps. I installed all Dell updates and the Dell Trusted Device. But partial IoA indicators was still active.

Then I did a fresh Windows 11 install from a USB with an image downloaded from Microsoft. I installed only Trusted Device. Now the IoA indicators are cleared. I think when Dell is in control of reinstalling the OS it retains the Trusted Device data from the old installation. Using the MS image solved the problem but I did not find the reason for the cause of the IoA.

Three days ago I disabled these settings.
PLDM_UsbWake enabled
PLDM_CapsuleFirmwareUpdate enabled

Are these warnings supposed to be cleared before the Partial Indicators of Attack is cleared?


Strangely these are enabled by the Default and Factory BIOS setting. From Application and Service Logs > Dell Trusted Device:
