Help! Can’t Boot Windows with Secure Boot Enabled

Asked By TechyNinja42 On

I've been struggling to get Valorant running because it requires secure boot to be enabled. I enabled TPM 2.0 and secure boot, but when I select 'Windows UEFI' as the secure boot state, my system won't boot. I get a red screen that says 'The system found unauthorized changes in the firmware, operating system or UEFI drivers.' I've tried resetting my CMOS, updating my BIOS, and reinstalling Windows while keeping my files and apps, but I'm still stuck. I really need some guidance on how to solve this issue. Has anyone faced something similar?

I totally get your frustration! I had the same problem. Make sure to enable secure boot in the BIOS before reinstalling Windows. Trying to enable it after could be causing those boot issues.

It sounds like the issue is that Windows wasn't installed with UEFI enabled from the start. You may need to create a bootable USB and reinstall Windows with UEFI settings properly configured. If you want to keep your files, select the option to keep them during reinstall.

I'm in the same boat over here! I couldn't find a fix either, but I'm thinking about giving the reinstall another shot with secure boot enabled first.
