Switching from windows 7 to Linux really was a good call from me, as in, the timing. I'm glad I have never and will never experience horrors like this

I had a similar problem when I made my win11 mini PC into an Ubuntu server. It took forever for win11 to remove the bitlocker encryption, and that was before spending ages trying to find 0ut how to remove it.
Yep, happened with my wife's laptop. Fortunately you just follow the instructions and we had a second laptop but I was still sweating bullets.
That explains why I was just trying to update my friend's motherboard's firmware and it locked him out. He had to reinstall his os.
I'm trying to get secure boot working on cachyOS using sbctl but my Razer Blade laptop's bios seems locked and won't let get it in setup mode. Anyone know if it's possible to clear vendor keys on razer's American mega trends UEFI?
Why the fuck is this the place where you ask that?
As nice as most distros are, I wouldn't recommend installing it on Gpa's/Parent's PC, simply because if a problem arrives most people won't be able to give them a fix easily, unless they also know how to use Linux.
My grandpa fixes all of his Windows problems himself

Seems like Linux skills for IT people can become a gold mine.
Fuck, I'm gonna have to enable secure boot (and use windows) to play the BF6 open beta, am I gonna get the same buillshit ?
If it doesn't affect my Linux drives I don't care much tbh, I'll probably just nuke windows and reinstall it
If you use Rufus to burn the ISO into the USB, there is an option to patch the ISO to not require secure boot.
