    Unable to enable Secure Boot.


    I recently downloaded FIFA 23 on my Lenovo Legion 5i Windows 11. When I started the game it said, "Secure Boot is not enabled on this machine". I googled this issue and found instructions that would allow me to check status of and enable Secure Boot.I followed the instructions to the word which led me to the BIOS and UEFI Firmware Settings. In the security tab, I found the toggle to enable/disable Secure Boot and enabled it. After the system restarted, having applied the setting, I checked System Information again only to find that Secure Boot is still "Off".I ran advanced startup

    :)

  2. Windows 8 Secure Boot Feature: Not So Secure?

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

    • Oh and OSX
    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.

    Hi Samid,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    Before we proceed, we would require more information to assist you further.


    • What is the make and model of your computer?

    I suggest you check if you are able to boot into Windows Recovery Environment using installation media. Follow the steps provided below and check.

      • Insert the installation USB and boot Windows 10 from it.
      • In the ‘Windows setup’ page select the ‘language to install’, ‘Time and currency format’ and the ‘keyboard or input method’ and click on ‘next’.
      • Click on ‘Repair your computer’ and select ‘Troubleshoot’.
    Check if you are able to boot to this window. If you are unable to boot to this window, I suggest you to contact the manufacturer and check.

    Hope this information is helpful. Reply us with this information to assist you further.

    Thank you.
