I need to either install the Secure Boot or enable it. I go through all the steps I find to do it and the last option is to select UEFI and restart. The problem is that option does not show up in my system. Is there a work around for this or am I just stuck with what I have?

Do you have a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.0 on your motherboard?

 

This is where it plugs in. Rite next to the USB headers on the bottom of the motherboard.

This is what the Module looks like. Prices are going up and up the closer we get to the official Win 11 release date. They used to be between $20-$30 but the quality "brand name" ones are $50++ now.

3 types of TPM ,   14 Pin and 20 Pin  are Intel MB x99 chipset and up.

12 Pin AMD with DDR4 MB  

Note: MS supports TPM 2.0 only for win 11

Also if your HD format is mbr it will not work either. That is my problem not going to do a new install.

THIS IS FOR AMD Motherboards:::::::First go into to bios and see  if you have TPM on AMD it shows as Ftpm if that shows you will not need the module,my mb has place for the module but its all ready on the board> also check if motherboard has a Bios Win 11  update mine has and the board is 4 yrs old...first down load W11  iso and pop it on a usb stick

Now this bugged me for weeks caused endless problems crashes wanted to throw PC out the window!!!,on Amd boards you have to disable CSM, set from legacy drive to UEFI,you will notice you lose all hardrives etc showing,you can then enable secure boot save and exit,pop usb stick in,go through setup process chose upgrade[ ie keep[existing files},  it will then copy W11 and keep all your games etc it will automatically  change your hard drive to UEFI.

Now the bummer part maybe just happened to me but if you have any secondary drives it will not show the contents as the re not uefi,BUT if your motherboard bios supports it [mine did not] some bios lets you have both Legacy/Uefi  dual mode mine didnt😪
