how to install windows 11 without secure boot

There are several ways to install Windows 11 without Secure Boot enabled. A common and effective method involves bypassing the Secure Boot and TPM checks via a registry hack during installation. Here is the primary approach:

1. Create a bootable Windows 11 USB installation drive.
2. Before starting setup, use the Registry Editor (regedit) and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup.
3. Create a new key called LabConfig.
4. Under LabConfig, create two DWORD (32-bit) values named BypassTPMCheck and BypassSecureBootCheck.
5. Set both values to 1 to bypass the TPM and Secure Boot checks.
6. Close the registry editor and reboot the PC.
7. Boot from the USB drive and continue Windows 11 installation in normal mode, which will now skip the Secure Boot requirement.

Alternative methods involve using third-party tools like Rufus to create a bootable USB that automatically bypasses the Secure Boot and TPM checks, or modifying the Windows installation ISO manually to remove these checks. This process allows installing Windows 11 on unsupported hardware without Secure Boot enabled while still performing a clean install.
