Hello, I've been dealing with this problem for a while now but haven't found a way to resolve it. When I power on my HP Pavilion (HP Pavilion) with Secure Boot turned on, it locates the Windows boot manager in the startup menu. However, when I need to restart from Windows, it can't find a bootable device. If I keep this cycle going and turn off Secure Boot, it does find the Windows boot manager. But then I see a BitLocker recovery prompt. The unusual part is that I haven't configured BitLocker yet, so there shouldn't be any encryption on my drive. Also, when I check Windows Security Encryption, it doesn't say anything about an encrypted drive. This seems to be related to the TPM chip. I really want to fix this because I don't like shutting down after every system update. Thanks for your help!

It never locates a bootable device unless presented. Resetting differently from the other method actually restarts while it's powered down, but only briefly pauses. The solution should properly identify the drive. Fixboot probably handles this. It remains a bothersome command.
