I have been trying to update the bios for some time now. The first time this happened the bios update screen flashed for less than a second then just a black screen and I had to completely shut it off and restart. I tried again and the same result. It refuses to update and now it won't even go to the bios update screen. Today a new bios update came out and I thought a new update would finally do the trick. What happens now is I'll run as administrator and for a fraction of a second windows command processor will pop up then just go away. This is getting frustrating as I really do love this device. If anyone can help I appreciate it.
 
Which model do you have Claw A1M or the new AI series?
Try to download the BIOS package from MSI website and follow the quick guide included in the package and update again.
 
How about updating it through MSI Center M?
Maybe it has been updated already? Check the version of BIOS, not the release date, the latest version is E1T52IMS.10B for Claw 8 AI+ or E1T42IMS.10B for Claw 7 AI+.
If you still cannot update the BIOS, try to do EC reset and update again.
 
You would need to reboot the device after clicking the “FLASHWIN" file.
They've mentioned in the quick guide.

The same happened not me. Here are he steps that worked for me. 1) Disable BitLocker in Windows. Let it finish decryption (will take a while). 2) Download a fresh copy of the new Bios file from MSI. Extract compressed file. 3) Run FLASHWIN in administrator mode. --- I did it from a USB but not sure that matter. Hope this helps.
