Hey everyone! I'm currently using Windows 11, and I've had Secure Boot options enabled in my BIOS for a while, but I only recently tried to do the full setup. I'm encountering a really confusing error when trying to run the MBR2GPT command. It mentions that it expects partition style 0 but is finding 1 instead. Most discussions online seem to focus on the reverse situation where it expects 1 but sees 0. I'm trying to figure out what this partition style refers to, as it's not clear to me. I've attached a screenshot of my disk management screen, and everything seems normal to me with the recovery and EFI partitions included. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

From what you've described, it seems like your drive is already set as GPT, which is what the error is indicating. If it’s saying it found style 1, then that means you’re already on the GPT format. It could be worth checking your BIOS settings again to confirm everything is set up for UEFI and ensure secure boot is configured properly.
It sounds like you’re on the right track, but be careful when changing the BIOS or disk settings; you don’t want to lose any data. If Secure Boot is still off after checking your UEFI settings, that could be the underlying issue blocking the full setup. You might want to revisit the secure boot settings and make sure everything aligns properly.
I noticed you already have Windows 11 and an EFI partition, so it's likely that you don’t actually need to run MBR2GPT at this point. Why did you decide to run that command in the first place? The Secure Boot setup might be the core issue here rather than the disk's partitioning.
