The Yes Button is inactive in the BIOS updater for New 4th Gen Intel Core Processors , but the Intel Management Engine Interface was installed.

Because the system probably is seeing that the bios is already up to date according to the update servers. You shouldn't use automatic utilities to update the bios anyhow. Manual methods, by going and physically verifying with your own eyes, that there is not a newer version available on the motherboard product page, and updating it yourself, is always going to be the preferred method anyhow.
The Intel management engine interface shouldn't have anything to do with the UEFI bios anyhow, which is firmware and is entirely independent of the operating system.

It says above inactive Yes button and active No button:
This tool is for BIOS update to support new Intel® 4th Gen
Core™ Processors. Please ensure that the Intel® Management
Engine Interface driver is properly installed before using this
tool.
That driver is listed among installed drivers when such bat file is run:
driverquery /V
driverquery /?

and is marked as Running OK, so perhaps you are right. ASUS lists a lot BIOS updates for the H81M-PLUS motherboard, but maybe they were installed before getting to the shop last year. But updates depend on Windows version. That computer was bought without Windows. This is a little disturbing.

I never said the bios was "dependent" on the OS. I said it was "independent" of the OS, which means, one should not affect the other, at all, except that a newer OS is likely to run better if you have the most recent bios version installed. Do not rely on an automatic utility to make this determination for you. Verify your bios version against the latest available bios version yourself, visually, with your own two eyes. The automatic utilities will often tell you that there is no newer bios version available when in fact there is one, or even several.
You do not need to install each version that is newer than yours, if there are any. Each bios version supercedes ALL previous versions so if you have, for example, version 1234 and there is a version 2345 and version 3456, you would ONLY need to install version 3456, not version 2345. You can find the bios images on the product page for your motherboard model.
Intel management engine interface is not necessary (Although it's highly recommended for the operating system) in order to install newer bios versions manually, via flash drive. There are instructions on flashing the bios manually on the product pages of every modern aftermarket motherboard.
Are you having problems that lead you to believe you need to update the bios or that there is a newer bios version available which you would like to install even if you are not currently having issues? What is your operating system version?
This update program should bring ME to version 12.0.22.1310
I have already updated the Bios to Version 0805
When running the ME update program as admin, I am receiving this error message:
Warning.
Please check MEI Driver is installed.
I confirm indeed the ME is not updated: the system is running version 12.0.6.1120
Could you please help me find a way forward?
Full config details:
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-9900K CPU @ 3.60GHz
Motherboard: Asus ROG MAXIMUS XI EXTREME / Bios version 0805 (latest at time of writing post)
Memory: Corsair DDR4 2x8GB (SKU: CMD16GX4M2E4000C19)
Graphic card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 / driver version 419.35 (latest at time of writing post)
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64bits / version 1809 (latest at time of writing post)
I managed to manually update the ME firmware by doing the following:
- opened elevated command line
- navigate to MEUpdateTool_12.0.22.1310_T\FW folder
- typed command: FWUpdLcl64.exe -F ME.bin
- reboot
System is now at 12.0.22.1310
After update, the ASUS GUI for ME update still doesn't work (same error popup as before).
Now looking into the text of the ASUS support download page I wonder exactly what they meant with this:
*We suggest you update ME Driver to the latest Version 12.0.22.1310 simultaneously.
So it seems there are 2 updates to perform: one for the firmware, and another one for the driver?
Windows device manager indicates my driver version at: 1904.12.0.1208
79460
Is there some drivers I should be updating too?
Could you please share what's your driver version if you made this ME update properly (ie: using the ASUS GUI update program)?
The driver version on your motherboard page is 1828.12.0.1152, though it might register as 1904.12.0.1208 on device manager.
I don't understand ASUS statement also, as usually ME FW updates come as part of the BIOS bundle (well, at least up until now).
Not sure why you are trying to re-run the GUI updater if you have already done so manually.
You can check if your FW update was done in UEFI welcome screen, as ME version will be there, you just need to remember what it was before :)
Although you have stated:
System is now at 12.0.22.1310
So, i guess you have somehow checked that already.

Thank you for your response.
Why I tried to run the program again once FW was manually updated?
Well I'm puzzled as to why I couldn't plainly update via the program provided by ASUS in the first place.
So I figured maybe having the ME brought to latest version would have solved the issue raised by the error popup . but it doesn't.
I checked the ME FW version with the command line, using the update tool:
FWUpdLcl64.exe -FWVER
Actually, device manager showed that driver version you mention, starting with 18, but when clicking on the "update driver" button, it searched online and found updated drivers and brought the number up.
No perceptible difference whatsoever :)
Do you know why this error popup was raised in the first place?

No clue for why its erroring out, perhaps yet another fubar installation from ASUS. Again, I would expect an ME FW update to come bundled within a BIOS version as it usually does.
As for the driver, I wouldn't recommend updating the driver from Windows Update (that's what the update button does, goes to Windows Update Catalog) as driver updates better come from the vendor itself (ASUS) due to customizations, signoffs, and testing.
The only driver I update regulary and dont wait for the ASUS one is NVIDIA driver, due to massive latency in release.
Many thanks Katlani, your input helped a lot!
I went to the download page of ASUS to download the Chipset component of Version 1828.12.0.1152 (which includes, in its description, the Intel Management Engine Interface).
I installed it, which -I suspect- leveled my drivers to the plane ASUS expected.
From there, I was able to flawlessly run the ASUS ME FW program: there was no longer the error popup.
Yes, obviously my system's firmware was already updated, but I find it important to be capable of updating using the standard programs released by the manufacturer.
So now I'm back on the rails.
As conclusion, it seems this error message simply originated because in the first place, my Intel Management Engine components where updated via Windows Update and using instead ASUS elements enabled ASUS software to run: I never installed drivers from the ASUS support page, as all elements were recognized straight from Windows after install.
Many thanks, this is resolved.
Maybe it will help someone else facing this issue
I just tried this myself on my PRIME Z370-A (different ME version update is available) by using the GUI.
After it updated, i tried to run it again even, thinking it would wisely tell me its already updated, but it just re-updated again.
Anyway, checked the version in UEFI welcome screen and was indeed updated.

The Intel Management Engine Interface, commonly known as the IMEI, is a built-in driver that enables communication between the IME firmware and the operating system of the device. The drivers activate certain features on the motherboard and allow the hardware to function properly. However, sometimes, the drivers fail to perform their tasks, rendering the computer almost unusable.
Below you will find four solutions that you can implement to fix this problem.
Update the drivers
The drivers for the Intel management engine interface could be the reason why the software is acting up. It could either be that the drivers are outdated or that the recently updated drivers are malfunctioning.
Step 1: On the search icon on your taskbar, type Device Manager and click on it
Step 2: Expand the system devices option
Step 3: Find the Intel Management Engine Interface option and click on it, and a pop-up window will appear
Step 4: Under the driver tab, click on update driver software and be patient as it updates. After it’s done, close the window and restart the computer
Manually Uninstall and Reinstall Drivers
Step 1: On the taskbar, type device manager and look for the Intel Management Engine Interface under the system devices option
Step 2: Under the driver tab, an option to uninstall device will be presented to you. Click on it and wait for the uninstall to complete
Step 3: After its done, visit your manufacturer’s official website and download the Intel drivers
Step 4: Run the executable files and follow the instructions given and finally, restart your device
Update Windows 10
Another problem could be that your device hasn’t been updated for a while and therefore, the older versions of the drivers aren’t functioning properly
Step 1: Open settings on your computer
Step 2: Click on the Update And Security option
Step 3: If your device was not recently updated, an update patch will be available under the windows update tab. Apply these updates
Step 4: Reboot your device
This sometimes doesn’t work, and the system error message still appears after the reboot. What you need to do is remove the updates that are causing the problem.
Step 1: Follow the instructions above and head on to the windows update tab
Step 2: Click on the View installed updates history and uninstall updates from your device. Reboot and see if the error message has been sorted out
Scan the Computer
Scanning allows you to see all the drivers that are malfunctioning, and you should be able to fix them. Although this process takes some time, it is, in most cases, the better option.
Step 1: Right click on the Windows icon on the taskbar
Step 2: A menu will appear. Click on command prompt (Admin)/windows PowerShell (Admin) so as to access the command prompt
Step 3: Type scf/scannow which prompts for a full system scan which will take a while. The scan will detect the faulty drivers and fix them.
Приветствую друзья. Сегодня мы поговорим про некое системное устройство, информации о котором в интернете мало, а дровишки часто ставятся автоматом виндой при обновлении. Постараюсь все написать простыми словами.
Intel Management Engine Interface — что это такое?
Обеспечивает работу некоторых функций: отключение экрана через заданное время, уход в спящий режим тоже через определенное время, и некоторые другие опции железа, которые можно задавать/изменять из под Windows. Драйвер на данное устройство винда ставит автоматом.
Теперь немного официальной информации.
Некая подсистема, встроенная в чипсеты процессоров Интел с 2008 года. Состоит из софта — прошивки и микропроцессора, который эту прошивку исполняет.
Интел говорит, что данная система нужна для обеспечения максимальной производительности, но при этом принцип работы — недокументирован, а исходный код (видимо прошивки) — закодирован.
Компания АМД тоже в свои процы встраивает аналогичную систему AMD Secure Technology.
Еще в Intel Management Engine была найдена уязвимость, при помощи которой возможно было удаленное использование. Не хочу углубляться, главное понимать, что скорее всего уязвимость устранена, думаю при помощи новых драйверов. Хм, уязвимость нашли в 2017 году, при том что данная подсистема встроена в процах начиная с поколения Nehalem, а это 2008 год.. у меня как раз проц от Интел, поколение Haswell (2013) — никогда никаких взломов или вирусов не было.. Может быть Microsoft тоже какое-то обновление создало для устранения уязвимости.
Также вот читаю, что есть слухи — при помощи подсистем Imtel MEI и AMD PSP спецслужбы могут внедрятся в каждый компьютер, подключенный к сети. И что даже таким способом взламывались компьютеры известных политиков..
Собственно то самое устройство, но только здесь — в семерке:
Как быстро запустить диспетчер устройств: зажимаете Win + R, пишите команду devmgmt.msc, нажимаете ОК и вуаля!
Зачем нужно Intel Management Engine?
На одном сайте нашел инфу, что подсистема нужна для различных задач связанных с:
- Мониторингом и обслуживанием режимов работы ПК, например включение/выключение, спящий режим (или гибернация, вечно путаюсь). А в Windows XP еще был ждущий, в десятке вроде два режима — ждущий и спящий сделали в одном и назвали гибернация.. но могу ошибаться, вечно в этом путаюсь..
- Имеет отношение к скорости работы вентиляторов. Возможно имеется ввиду автоматическая регулировка скорости.
То есть, можно сделать вывод, что нужно для.. внутренних аппаратных процессов материнской платы и ее взаимодействия с другими устройствами. По факту мы работу Intel Management Engine не видим. Однако это — устройство, оно требует драйвера, который устанавливается виндой автоматом (скорее всего при первом обновлении). Можно также установить и вручную, скачав его с офф сайта материнской платы… или с сайта Интел, точно не скажу.
Intel Management Engine Interface — нужно ли устанавливать?
Если установилось — хорошо.
Нет — ничего страшного.
Устройство системное и узконаправленное, винда должна сама установить дрова на него. Если нет, то можно скачать, поставить, хотя опять же — на чистой винде без хлама и вирусов данный драйвер должен установиться автоматом.
На форумах также читал, что само устройство Intel Management Engine будет работать и без драйвера, который нужен только для доступа к функционалу Intel Management Engine. В плане функционала.. например там есть некие возможности удаленного администрирования..
Некоторые пользователи не ставили этот драйвер принципиально и все у них работало нормально.
