Problems activating secure boot for Win 11 upgrade

Yes, the test says that I need to enable Secure Boot to be able to install Win 11.

 

Which Do I Enable, PTT and DTMP in Bios to Upgrade to Win 11?

Hi cerebus, I enabled TPM 2.0. And I did the following to enable secure boot which I read is needed to enable Device Encryption:

1. If you want to enable Secure Boot: "Advanced"-> "Settings"-> "Windows OS Configuration"-> look for "Windows 8/8.1 Feature" or "Windows 10 WHQL Support" and set it to "UEFI".
2. Save and exit.
3. Enter BIOS.
4. Go to "Advanced"-> "Settings"-> "Windows OS Configuration"->Secure Boot-> set "Secure Boot" to Enabled.
5. Save and exit.

But after I rebooted I couldnt find Device Encryption anywhere. But when I went into System Information I found under Device Encryption Support and I need "elevation required to view." What do I do?

How to Enable Secure Boot on asus prime x470-pro

Hi, I'm Elise, and I'd be happy to help with your issue.

There is a very detailed guide here which provided step by steps instructions on how to enable this:

I would suggest ensuring you have a backup of any important data before you start this process.

If you are still not able to enable this, there is also a method to install Windows 11 on ‘unsupported hardware’, this would allow you to bypass the requirement for secure boot:
