Start dual booting Pop-OS alongside Windows 11
Start dual booting Pop-OS alongside Windows 11
I’ve purchased a Windows 11 laptop now. I understand it needs TPM 2.0 and secure boot, which are likely enabled by default. If I want to dual boot Pop OS as Linux alongside Windows 11, do I need to turn off or disable TPM? I also know secure boot isn’t supported, and I wonder if Windows 11 will still function without it.
Windows 11 is running smoothly on your Huawei MateBook D, even though you installed Manjaro. The original Windows version was likely Windows 10 at the time of installation.
In this scenario, all your Windows 11 functionalities operate correctly, including features linked to secure boot such as Hello unlocking.
I'm seeking advice since I need to decide between Ubuntu and Pop-OS for dual booting with Windows 11. Pop-OS seems ideal based on my requirements, especially with NVIDIA drivers on Linux, while Ubuntu offers secure boot support. Additionally, I want to confirm if BitLocker encryption is available, as some sources suggest it might require re-entering the key each time you boot if secure boot is off.
