Manually Enable Secure Boot For Windows 11
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.พ. 2025
- This is an update to a pervious video where I showed you how to use MBR2GPT to convert an MBR partition to GPT so you can enable secure boot. However, that command doesn't always work on non standard partition schemes. So today I'm going to chow you how to manually do the same thing but this time it works on all systems that have a UEFI BIOS.

Always enjoy your videos of tips - this one also very informative and helpful! - appreciate it
Also - great shirt!😂
Refreshing to see an actual pc tech here on this platform
Thanks.
So you mean most of these tech youtubers aren't pc techs?
@@tendosingh5682 not very good ones
2:20 😂"Cookie Cutter Computers." That was funny.
"list vol" in diskpart will always show all volumes on all disks. However, "list par" will show only the partitions on the selected disk. Put another way, "list vol" does not care what disk is selected. You do not even need to select a disk to run "list vol".
Good to know.
I dig the Heisenberg RV Wallpaper.......
Great vid, always learn something new each time
Had to turn off CSM to get it to work but thanks for the video
It is better not to touch data partitions at all. No matter where the other stuff goes, it'll work either way. Moving partitions is error prone and pretty long, if anything goes wrong or a power outage occur, the data is basically gone.
Thanks! Now I can remove my THREE recovery partitions ( 1.14GB, 19.34GB, 1.51GB) and recreate the only one needed.
Pleeeease do a vid on decent PC under £800. I fell for the Mini M4 hype and need to get back to Windows; you're one of FEW I trust on TH-cam.
I did one a few months ago and I'm doing another one right now that should be released next Monday.
12:00 actually instead of moving the c partition which will take a lot of time on drivers that are more full with data, you should just resize the partition so that it expands into the unallocated space. Haven't watched the video past this point, but having 12gb of unallocated space before the C drive is definetely not good. You just need ~500mb for the EFI partition (if dualbooting. if not -default 100mb is enough) and 16mb for the MSR partition. The recovery partition resides right after the C drive, or at the end of the disk.
edit: watched the video further, yeah, you could have just expnaded the partition without moving it. If someone is dualbooting linux, having a 500mb EFI partition is desirable, to keep more kernels. Pop os for example will not install on an EFI part smaller than ~500mb.
One more thing about the repair install, yeah this is also an option, but we can actually try to recreate the recovery partition using diskpart:
"
diskpart
sel dis 0
sel vol X (the last partition)
shrink desired=800
create partition primary
format quick fs=ntfs label="winRE"
set id="de94bba4-06d1-4d40-a16a-bfd50179d6ac"
exit
reagentc /enable
"
It will recreate the recovery partition without having to do a whole repair install or version jump
The repair install is for more than just restoring the recovery partition. For instance, hibernation doesn't work before the repair install either.
Hello! Thanks so much for your incredible videos and content, really is highly appreciated. Im still running Windows 10 and keeps asking / suggesting I install / upgrade to Windows 11. I’m a hardcore gamer, just mentioning out of reference. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks again 🙏🙏😀🥳
I google this once, but now I have forgotten it.👍
FreeBSD allows you to make GPT Disk and boot from Legacy BIOS pc. It were possible if Microsoft wanted to
HP ZBook 17 G5 is booting into Windows 11 without secure boot (from winload.exe,, not from winload.efi). BCD file is located in Boot map on active primary partition on MBR disk.
In the end Microsoft will save linux with all these Win11 requirements fiasco.
I would prefer to use a 2nd drive and do a fresh gpt install on it. Once done , simply wipe the fresh c partition and clone your old c partion to the new drive. Once that is done you can directly access the PE shell to "fix" the efi partition. Less steps. so less things to go wrong.
Any Linux distro is WAY easier to install.
GPT partition or rather LGPT one?
@CyberCPU Tech how do I disable it properly so I can make a bootable clone. Then re enabled it. That way I have a FULL backup.
Windows Server is there a place to get an activation key?
Is there no way to save the factory recovery partion, I asume not....As if it was used it would put the drive back to MBR..... Thx for sharing
It's not worth saving. It's too easy to replace so I just wipe it and recreate it during the repair install.
Hello, I cant enable secure boot at all like it wont let me, what do I do? theres no videos about this
Do you know why diskgenius quit working ????
19 seconds in and I just noticed the shirt.... LMFAO
If you want your own there's a link in the description. 😉
I accidentally unadded myself from my administrator list and when I try to go into the Recovery settings I get a blue screen saying inaccessible boot device, and I can’t go into safe boot mode, is there any fix for this?
Early in this video you said that this was for windows 10 but your name of this video says windows 11 so before I will do anything I need you to please tell me which windows is this video for? Thank you
It will work on both. However, typically you would do this to a Windows 10 system so you can upgrade to Windows 11. However, the process itself will work on either.
Just leave the hibernation turned off. It was useful with mechanical hard drives. Everybody should be using SSDs now, so hibernation is just a waste of disk space.
Fast boot still makes SSD systems boot faster.
@@CyberCPUIt's using power to keep the system and hibernation file working
there is no reason to use mbr anymore
Yes and it stands for master boot record than that one GUID thing...
question if you try this on a system that dose not have UEFI and break yer system how can you fix it or is it unfixable also can you do this without loosing data
Backup, backup, backup..
@@pfitz4881 yup indeed already have everything backed up here on wd elements external 4tb drive and i got uefi here
i already turned this secure boot off from the BIOS because it messed up my system after merging the C partition with another one using AOMEI.. after that my laptop (Dell Precision) was on Bootloop and half loaded BIOS and stayed hanged forever... so, I had to dissassemble the back cover and remover the SSD in order to enter to the BIOS and turn the secure boot off. i had to use my Windows ssd in an enclusre and luckily i have another ssd to make an image of it on Hiren'sBoot, then i had to create the bootloader manually and everything was fixed without the need to make a fresh windows installation... it's kinda annoying but i think this is common in most if not all DELL Laptops... so, for me NO MORE SECURE BOOT
OMG, I hate secure boot! As a tech, it's impossible to work on those drives while in the machine!
Is there any way you could reach out to me on my window 11 I did my 31 out dated drivers and my mic quit working can you reach out to me and help me
I hate Windows 11, because it is not user-oriented, has some very clear and impacting worseing GUI compared even to Windows 10 (not to mention compared to Win 7) and it is massively spyware. And the TPM-requierement at that... Windows 10 was also spyware and a very bad so called "OS" compared to the last real OS Microsoft released, Windows 7. But Windows 11 is even worse than Windows 10!
Thank you for another, as always, great video!!
Best regards.
I like your videos, but this one confused me a lot, especially the intro. Why do you want secure boot (= Vendor Lock-in)? It has NOTHING to do with any security at all and also not needed for Windows 11 at all! I have a cheap laptop and no secure boot enabled and can start Windows 11 from a UEFI shell ... I do not understand the use-case you try to explain ... (I also do not know about any mbr to gpt tool that I would trust to use, who uses something like that? 😁)
Thanks, but I'm staying on Windows 10.
Ok hipster
@@albertwesker295 Okay, ultracrepidarian.
Windows 11 Pro, 24H2, OS Build 26100.1742, I have an Update, and it says, "We Ran into a problem, Select Fix Issues to try to resolve the Problem, but this does not work as it is telling my PC does not meet the TPM requirements. But I am using the latest Windows 11 24H2
I've been trying to pay attention, but ypur shirt keeps making me laugh 😂😂😂🫠🫠🫠
