Cannot update BIOS from 0080 to 0081

Each time I boot my NUC on Windows 10, I'm offered to install a new version of the BIOS. Download works, then it asks me to reboot to install. I reboot, but the installation doesn't proceed, it goes back to Windows. I'm asked if I want to install the new version again. I tried to download and copy the .BIO file to a USB stick, but when I reboot and press F7, the USB stick is not displayed in the list (I tried to format it as FAT32 and NTFS).

What is the model number of your NUC?

Insert the USB with the .bio file in the rear USB port.

Front or back had the same result. Now I found the solution: I used another USB stick and it worked. Thanks.

You may try the express update method. Download the BNKBL357.86A.0081.EB.msi, double click on it and follow the instructions (your NUC will reboot during update process).

Please check if the Bios Security Jumper is installed in NORMAL position, between pins 1-2. See Technical Product Specification, page 59.
