I just bought a new PC and it works great right away. After I installed Windows 11 and all the programs, I noticed that Secure Boot was not turned on. Since Windows 11 says you need it to work, I thought I had to turn it on before installing, but that never happened. I read some online posts saying if I try to enable it now, things will break. So what should I do? Should I just leave it alone or try to fix it? Here are my system settings:

Operating System Name Microsoft Windows 11 Pro
Version Number 10.0.22631 Build 22631
Computer Name HOME
Brand Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
Model Z790 AORUS ELITE X WIFI7
Type x64-based computer
Processor 13th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-13700K, running at 3400 Mhz with 16 cores and 24 logical processors.

Installed Memory (RAM) 64 GB total
Embedded Controller Version 255.255

Secure Boot State Off

Windows directory is at C:\Windows and the system folder is at C:\Windows\system32. I am in the United States, and this computer uses a hardware abstraction layer version of 10.0.22621.2506.
