# Manage Surface UEFI settings
|
||||
|
||||
Current and future generations of Surface devices, including Surface Pro 7, Surface Book 2, and Surface Studio 2,use a unique UEFI firmware engineered by Microsoft specifically for these devices. This firmware allows for significantly greater control of the device’s operation over firmware versions in earlier generation Surface devices, including the support for touch, mouse, and keyboard operation. By using the Surface UEFI settings you can easily enable or disable internal devices or components, configure security to protect UEFI settings from being changed, and adjust the Surface device boot settings.
|
||||
|
||||
>[!NOTE]
|
||||
>Surface Pro 3, Surface 3, Surface Pro 2, Surface 2, Surface Pro, and Surface do not use the Surface UEFI and instead use firmware provided by third-party manufacturers, such as AMI.
|
||||
|
||||
You can enter the Surface UEFI settings on your Surface device by pressing the **Volume Up** button and the **Power** button simultaneously. Hold the **Volume Up** button until the Surface logo is displayed, which indicates that the device has begun to boot.
|
||||
All current and future generations of Surface devices use a unique Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) engineered by Microsoft specifically for these devices. Surface UEFI settings provide the ability to enable or disable built-in devices and components, protect UEFI settings from being changed, and adjust the Surface device boot settings.
|
||||
|
||||
## Support for cloud-based management
|
||||
|
||||
With Device Firmware Configuration Interface (DFCI) profiles built into Microsoft Intune (now available in public preview), Surface UEFI management extends the modern management stack down to the UEFI hardware level. DFCI supports zero-touch provisioning, eliminates BIOS passwords, provides control of security settings including boot options and built-in peripherals, and lays the groundwork for advanced security scenarios in the future. DFCI is currently available for Surface Pro 7, Surface Pro X, and Surface Laptop 3. For more information, refer to [Intune management of Surface UEFI settings](surface-manage-dfci-guide.md).

When Surface devices are configured by SEMM and secured with the SEMM certificate, they are considered *enrolled* in SEMM. When the SEMM certificate is removed and control of UEFI settings is returned to the user of the device, the Surface device is considered *unenrolled* in SEMM.
|
||||
|
||||
There are two administrative options you can use to manage SEMM and enrolled Surface devices – a standalone tool or integration with System Center Configuration Manager. The SEMM standalone tool, called the Microsoft Surface UEFI Configurator, is described in this article. For more information about how to manage SEMM with System Center Configuration Manager, see [Use System Center Configuration Manager to manage devices with SEMM](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/surface/use-system-center-configuration-manager-to-manage-devices-with-semm).

## Microsoft Surface UEFI Configurator
|
||||
|
||||
The primary workspace of SEMM is Microsoft Surface UEFI Configurator, as shown in Figure 1. Microsoft Surface UEFI Configurator is a tool that is used to create Windows Installer (.msi) packages or WinPE images that are used to enroll, configure, and unenroll SEMM on a Surface device. These packages contain a configuration file where the settings for UEFI are specified. SEMM packages also contain a certificate that is installed and stored in firmware and used to verify the signature of configuration files before UEFI settings are applied.

After a device is enrolled in SEMM, the configuration file is read and the settings specified in the file are applied to UEFI. When you run a configuration package on a device that is already enrolled in SEMM, the signature of the configuration file is checked against the certificate that is stored in the device firmware. If the signature does not match, no changes are applied to the device.

You can use Surface UEFI settings to enable or disable the operation of individual components, such as cameras, wireless communication, or docking USB port (as shown in Figure 3), and configure advanced settings (as shown in Figure 4).

When you use the process on the **Enterprise Management** page to reset SEMM on a Surface device, you are provided with a Reset Request. This Reset Request can be saved as a file to a USB drive, copied as text, or read as a QR Code with a mobile device to be easily emailed or messaged. Use the Microsoft Surface UEFI Configurator Reset Request option to load a Reset Request file or enter the Reset Request text or QR Code. Microsoft Surface UEFI Configurator will generate a verification code that can be entered on the Surface device. If you enter the code on the Surface device and click **Restart**, the device will be unenrolled from SEMM.
