Answer: No Please suspend Bitlocker before update.
2 Question: Can updater work on unprovisioning system?
What happen if update firmware without unprovisioning?
Answer: Updater can work without unprovisioning and after updating system will work fine.
But according to Intel, vulnerability may remain without unprovisioning, so we strongly recommend unprovisioning before update.

After 15s, attach AC and battery again then power on system and retry.
