    Secure Boot not activated


    HiI have windows 11 on my system and I wanted to run a game and it said in needed secure boot and tpm 2.0 on.So i checked "tpm.msc" and it said the tpm 2.0 is ready to use , I also ran the "get-tpm" on powershell and it said it is enabled . But about secure boot , I run the "confirm-securebootuefi" and it says it is not enabled. I wanted to enable it through BIOS but I can't change it like there is secure boot option and it says it's not activated and I am unable to change it.My question is can I enable secure boot through somewhere else like powershell or something or can I do something so it

    Windows 8 Secure Boot Feature: Not So Secure?

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

    Here is a statement from a Kernal Developer at Red Hat:

    I'm not sure this exploits the legacy BIOS but rather it exploits the legacy boot method on MBR drives, injecting a signed key before the OS boots, which you are correct in that it has nothing to do with Windows 8. And the simplest fix would just be to require boot drives use GPT when Secure Boot is enabled in UEFI.
