I already enabled Secure Boot in UEFI and tried multiple ways to turn it on, and I've noticed that some options are not available on my end.

I'm using an Acer A315-58.

Help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Try to restore the secure boot to factory default in the BIOS.

    Also, can you show this screenshot in the system information app?

    Hello shark!

    To enable secure boot:

    1. Press and hold the power button for 10 seconds to completely shutoff your computer.
    2. Power on the system and then immediately press F2 for several times to enter the BIOS.
    3. Use the right arrow key to select Security.
    4. Use the down arrow key to highlight Set Supervisor Password and press Enter.
    5. Create a password and press Enter. Retype the password to confirm and press Enter again.
    6. Use the right arrow key to select Boot.
    7. Press the down arrow key to select Secure Boot and press Enter.
    8. With the arrow key, highlight Disabled and press Enter.
    9. Press the F10 key and select Yes to save the changes and exit the BIOS.

    Hi @AnhEZ28
    I tried restoring it to factory default, but it, unfortunately, didn't work.
    Here's a screenshot of my system information.

    Hi @sasha58, that also did not work for me :(

    Thank you for your effort, though!

    Try to update the BIOS version to 1.35 https://www.acer.com/us-en/support/product-support/A315-58/downloads

    And choose the Erase all Secure Boot Setting after the update is finished.

    @rveonn

    You can go to the Acer support site and get the latest BIOS version by putting the model number in.
