Windows 8 TPM

Question

Is there an API for accessing stored TPM data for verifying the measured boot process?  If so, is there any example code available showing how to make use of the API.  Also, If an API is available, is it available for metro apps and standard desktop apps? 

Answer 1

Hi,

I'll try to involve more experts in this case.
