Ensure Secure Boot is Activated After Installing Windows 11?
I recently assembled a new computer and everything functions flawlessly. Once I configured Windows and installed all necessary software, I realized Secure Boot wasn’t turned on. I thought since Windows 11 mandates it, it should have been enabled prior to installation, but it wasn’t. Looking through some discussions about difficulties in enabling Secure Boot later, I found that doing so could cause issues. The dilemma is clear: should I attempt to activate Secure Boot or accept the default setting? Below are the system details.
It isn't automatically turned on; I believe it needs to be manually activated through the BIOS. That should also trigger the TPM or similar firmware in the motherboard, such as the FTPM. If it's not activated, that might be the issue.
