    Secure Boot and UEFI Firmware updates?

    If laptop is so old that it came with Windows 7, a firmware update is highly unlikely. Updating bios has nothing to do with secure boot anyway.

    Secure Boot and UEFI Firmware updates?

    The laptop I have is still with the Windows 7 logo sticker on it and now I am running Windows 10 on it.
    So, as I now recall, I had to change the BIOS settings to use only UEFI and then now I have enabled Secure Boot.

    So what do you suggest in case I need a firmware update?
    Should I disable Secure Boot before doing the firmware updates?
