I own an Acer Apire 5 A515-56G-54K9 (NX.AT1EK.009)
The software that Acer offers to manually re-flash the firmware (i.e. outside of Windows update) doesn't allow you the re-flash the firmware if it's already at the latest version.
Is there any way to re-flash the firmware, even if you're already at the latest version?
[Edited the thread to add model name to the title]
Yes, you can upgrade back to the same version by making a modification to the platform.ini file. However, it is extremely risky. My advice is to ignore the acer care center warning.
The file is located in the windows temp folder after starting the exe file.
FAQ & Answers
Do you have issues with your machine? Why do you want to reflash a BIOS which is up to date?
@Aurora_X76
It is highly not recommended to reflash the Bios. It is done only for known issues.
Updating your system BIOS is only necessary if a new version has been released to resolve a specific issue or contains an improvement for your system. Updating the BIOS will not make your system faster or improve your system performance. You should install a BIOS update if you are confident it addresses an issue you are experiencing.

I'm just asking in case I get a firmware-based malware at some point. My concern is that if the firmware is up-to-date, I wouldn't be able to re-flash it, thus being stuck with the malware. I'm aware that depending on the type of malware, re-flashing may not even be possible in the first place, but I'm asking just in case it's possible
