Hi everyone!

I'm really frustrated. I've watched dozens of videos on how to turn on my secure boot, and change my TPM to 2.0. The TPM changed, but my Secure Boot state in my System Information will not go to on no matter what I do. I've enabled it in my BIOS. But it still won't change. It's preventing me from playing some games, and it's extremely frustrating. How can I fix this??

Thanks in advance if you can offer some guidance!

open system information app
next to BIOS mode, what is it saying?

its possible your boot drive isn't formatted as GPT and may need to be converted before you can run Secure boot.

Also, Win 11 doesn't require Secure Boot to be on - as my shot above shows. So if you have win 11 installed, why worry?

Lets see, Valorant?

I see why you want it now. Its a bit rough when games force you to change PC settings to run them.
