Question Secure Boot not Enabled by Default on my New Windows 11 Laptop & UEFI Bios Questions

[very_452001]

Hello,

I bought a new ASUS VivoBook K3402ZA however Windows 11 reports Secure Boot is not turned on. So I went into the Bios and see Secure Boot is not active. How do I enable secure boot and which option do I select under the Key Management Screen and will doing this lose my data or stop access to my data in windows 11 locking me out of my laptop or anything meaning I have to do a factory reset or something to gain access to my laptop again?

Secondly how do I enable the following in Bios?:

- DEP

- UEFI MAT

- SMM

Finally what's the best way to update the UEFI Bios for my laptop? Is it through MyAsus App in windows or can I download update directly in the Uefi Bios because the bios is connected to the internet?

Cheers,
