Is selecting 'Disabled' for 'Manageability Feature Selection' in MEBx the correct way to disable AMT and therefore remote access?Р В РІР‚СњР вЂ™Р’В®ven when 'Management and Security Status' claims that AMT is disabled, the AMT Webserver seems to be running and is accessible in the local Broser:Р В РІР‚СњР вЂ™Р’В«TW, this is how the Webinterface looks like when AMT ist disabled in BIOS ('Management and Security Status' states that AMT is enabled): So leaving the BIOS option 'Enabled' and disable AMT in MEBx seems to be the only way to deactivate AMT. When you switch this option back to 'Enabled' and access MEBx, the password is 'admin' again, all settings are lost and AMT is active (what seems to be the default setting). It seems, that switching 'Intel (R) AMT Control' to 'Disabled' in BIOS just resets AMT to defaults. Is it necessary that the BIOS Option 'Intel AMT Control' stays 'Enabled' to get rid of AMT? Sound strange to me! If I leave my car door unlocked and the keys in the ignition, it allows a person to bypass other security car alarm/key fob checks, but it would be a stretch to call that a security vulnerability. also the 'Management and Security Status' states, that AMT is ACTIVATED Seems like this is more a case of F-Secure taking advantage of the news focus on Intel and Meltdown/Spectre to claim discovery of another Intel bug for their own accolades. While restarting, the BIOS prompted 'Intel ME unconfiguration in progress.'Р В РІР‚СњР вЂ™Р’В«UT then this flashed up and stated that AMT is 'enabled' (I had to take a movie, sorry for bad quality):Р В РІР‚СњР В РІР‚С›nd when Windows 7 was started this happend. I thought that I've finally got rid of AMT, restarted the ThinkPad, entered BIOS and set 'Intel AMT Control' back to 'disabled'.

and also the details looked different ('Informationen nicht verfР В РІР‚СљР РЋР’Вgbar' -> information not available) Double click Intel(R) Management Engine Interface and select Driver, then the ME driver version will show here as below. I went back to BIOS, reenabled AMT (otherwise you can't enter MEBx), pressed Ctrl+P on restart and used MEBx to disable AMT:Р В РІР‚СњР В РІР‚С›fter exiting MEBx and restarting Windows 7 'Management and Security Status' said, that AMT is disabled ('Deaktiviert'): I did some further googling which led me to the conclusion, that I have to use the 'Management Enging BIOS Extension' (MEBx) to disable AMT. but that the connections are disconnected ('Verbindung getrennt'): I decided to use the 'Management and Security Status' Tool which stated, that AMT is active ('Aktiviert' in german): So I went back to Windows and had a look in the device manger. First I had a look in the System BIOS which stated that AMT is disabled: Since I don't need this function I researched how this device can be disabled.

After the OS and all drivers (using Lenovo System Update) were installed, I had a look at the device manager and recognized the 'Intel management engine interface'. Yesterday I did a reinstallation of Windows 7 (ISO image from MSDNAA and not the Lenovo DVD).

I am using a Lenovo ThinkPad T420 and Windows 7 prof.
