Reinstalling the OS or wiping the computer won't turn the camera back on.

When you reinstall an older Windows version, install a separate OS, or format the hard drive, you can't override DFCI management. This feature can prevent malware from communicating with OS processes, including elevated OS processes. DFCI's trust chain uses public key cryptography, and doesn't depend on local UEFI (BIOS) password security. This layer of security blocks local users from accessing managed settings from the device's UEFI (BIOS) menus.
