    Cannot Disable Secure Boot


    In BIOS, there is an option to disable/enable Secure Boot.


    Whenever I disable it then go to boot windows, it tries and fails to boot about 5 times, then goes to a windows screen saying something along the lines of 'Cannot load windows, restart or troubleshoot'.

    Troubleshooting does not work, nor does restarting.


    When I switch from UEFI to Legacy in boot list options, it simply says that there was no OS detected.


    Is there a tool or something that I can use to disable it instead?


    TL;DR: Cannot Disable Secure Boot because if I do I cannot boot to windows.

    :)

    disabling secure boot

    Hello
    These are the instructions I received from the engineers at Asus regarding disabling secure boot. I can do so by clearing keys but that is not advised. I want to use various Linux distros which require that secure boot be disabled. My new board is Asus Tuf z390 Gaming Plus Wifi.
    Their directions below did not disable secure boot either. If you have any ideas I would appreciate them. The builder said he felt enabling CSM as Asus did should have disabled secure boot too.

    >>BIOS -> Boot -> CSM (Compatibility Support Module) -> Launch CSM -> Enabled

    1. Boot mode -> UEFI and Legacy
    2. Boot from Network -> Legacy (old drives); or UEFI mode (for NVME/SSD drives)
    3. Boot from Storage -> Legacy (old drives); or UEFI mode (for NVME/SSD drives)
    4. Boot from PCIE/PCI -> Legacy (old drives); or UEFI mode (for NVME/SSD drives)
    5. Go back to Boot -> Secure Boot -> OS Type -> Windows UEFI Mode (Windows 10/8.1/8) and Other OS (for Windows 7)<<

    Windows 8 Secure Boot Feature: Not So Secure?

    So Linux is switching to secure boot also? Or they have to because of UEFI?
