Access Denied Error 0x80070005 message when initializing TPM for Bitlocker

Hello, my name is Manoj Sehgal. I am a Senior Support Engineer in the Windows group and today’s blog will cover How to initialize TPM successfully when you enable Bitlocker in Windows 7.

A common problem we have seen since the release of Windows 7 has been to initialize TPM successfully so that you can successfully turn ON Bitlocker. This is most likely due to incorrect permissions for the SELF account in AD for ms-TPMOwnerInformation attribute.

When you try to turn on Bitlocker on Windows 7 Operating System Drive, you may get the Access Denied Error message while initializing TPM.

Additionally, when you open the TPM Management Console and you try to initialize TPM you get error message 0x80070005.
