I recently bought a new PC and started the process of installing Windows 11. Initially, everything seemed fine, but I quickly noticed a couple of issues: my computer was booting from the USB drive instead of my SSD, and I couldn't see the SSD in the UEFI settings. I checked settings like Secure Boot and GPT, and everything seemed correct.

It sounds like you might be having trouble with your BIOS settings. You have to ensure your SSD is configured correctly in the UEFI. Since you've used the Secure Erase feature, it wiped your drives clean. Try making a new Windows installer USB and boot from that to reinstall Windows. If that doesn't work, consider reaching out to the support team from where you purchased the computer; they might be able to help get a working Windows installation back on your machine.
Got it! I’ll make a new USB installer and give that a shot. Thanks for the advice!
