Secure Boot should generally be enabled on your PC, especially if you have a modern system and are running Windows 11 or a compatible OS. It is a security feature designed to ensure that only trusted software runs during the boot process, protecting your system from malware that can attack at startup. Most modern PCs come with Secure Boot enabled by default and it helps keep your system and data safe from boot-level infections and unauthorized changes. You should enable Secure Boot if it is currently disabled, provided that your system firmware is in UEFI mode and your operating system installation supports Secure Boot (e.g., installed in UEFI mode rather than legacy BIOS). Note that disabling it might be necessary only if you need to run certain software or alternative operating systems that do not support Secure Boot, but this is uncommon. Enabling Secure Boot is recommended unless you have a specific compatibility issue. Enabling Secure Boot typically requires setting your BIOS/UEFI firmware settings to UEFI mode and then turning on Secure Boot in the firmware options. Some manufacturers might require resetting Secure Boot keys or setting an admin password to modify this setting. In summary, yes, Secure Boot should be enabled for enhanced security and to meet modern OS requirements, unless you have a specific reason to disable it such as dual- booting certain Linux distributions or legacy software compatibility.
