Has anyone else hit a wall with Secure Boot during the Win11 upgrade? My PC meet?

You could also try clearing the TPM from within the BIOS, as that sometimes resolves the mismatch. Good luck!

Yeah, agreed. Also, double-check that your BIOS is set to UEFI mode, not Legacy/CSM, as that can cause Secure Boot to not register properly.

This happened to me on my Gigabyte board. I had to clear the Secure Boot keys and reset to "Setup Mode" before re-enabling it.

+1 Yeah, that key reset was the fix for me too—after you do that, make sure you select "Load Default Secure Boot keys" in your ASUS BIOS.

+1 Agreed, and just to add—after loading the default keys, remember to save and exit the BIOS for the change to actually apply.
