If you're on Windows you should always have it on by default, even if you're playing nothing.
Windows is full of security holes, and secure boot covers *some* of them.

All it does is tell the PC to "launch nothing that's not Windows until we're at desktop".

🤡

I dont think i need that so i wont turn it on

jesus christ dude, you have no idea.

TPM is a hardware-based security chip, its designed to stop the fking spyware and malware from stealing your ♥♥♥♥ like encryption keys and passwords.

remove your tin foil hat and stop beliving everything you read on the internet.

your eventually going to have to upgrade from your windows 95 and have it enabled anyway, so get used to it.

except i use windows 11 and have made sure it is off, which you can do (and should do) regardless of what YOUR side of the internet is telling you.

additionally, as people have posted before, if someone wanted to cheat properly this useless option would not stop them. Or am i hallucinating the dozens of threads about cheaters? Neither would it deter serious malware and software. TPM and secure boot is for developers only and consumers should not have to fiddle with it to install a video game. And are we playing in a professional tournament or? Keep up with the copious amounts of copium though, they love people like you who easily give away their data. it's beyond me how yall casually defending a video game asking you to fiddle with your bios settings, regardles of how harmless it may or may not be. whack, tbh

the tinfoil hat comment might work on someone who is carefree about their information (aka majority of you "they're not collecting your data" truthers), but the rest of us who aren't 20 years of age and actually grew up alongside tech and watch it develop into a less secure, less controllable enviorment laugh at you. anyway like i said: 🤡

You can send me your source so I can pick it apart. If you had one.
It's hilarious of you to claim WE don't understand information security, when the spyware is literally in a different, well known, part of Windows, but I bet you have it on, because you never figured out how to turn it off.

me when I think I ate but I'm not even 7. the fact that you're defending a video game asking you to fiddle with your bios settings (regardless of how innocent it may or may not be) is literally laughing material. they should do standup comedy for you ppl

"Fiddling with the BIOS settings" is something that has to be done for the PC to start in the first place. Apparently, you had someone else do it, which is... not causing you concern? But doing it yourself does?
It's an options menu, surely a gamer can figure out an options menu.

It literally only does this. Secure boot makes it so only software with a verified signature can run during windows startup.

im using linux mint with secure boot so no trouble on linux for me

Hate SecureBoot. I can't turn it on or it bricks my motherboard, so games with it annoy me too much.

That means your system drive is in the wrong format and you need to convert it using cmd commands.

im not to much into tech but how i understand it and would be happy if someone could tell me if im right or wrong

secure boot just checks on the system boot that no rootkit got installed on your kernel and deeper stuff on the system great feature for the average user

tpm 2.0 acts similar to a rootkit? it checks when the system is running if something is tempering with the deeper system stuff

the problem how i understand is that the anticheat software from developers nowadays got full access to the tpm2 stuff from microsoft and thats the problem?

i can understand that a small portion of people with really old pcs dont have secure boot and are mad about it but shouldnt more people be mad at tpm 2.0 im abit confused

time to buy a steam machine or console

So you're saying that Linux users could actually play the whole time?
