i found some solutions on line that i did not trust so id rather reach out here

Welcome :slight_smile:
You can disable fast and secure boot, M$ works fine, you need it only on fresh installation for M$.

Post always garuda-inxi on help requests, if needed use live ISO.

Go into BIOS, edit fast and secure boot and change boot order to garuda.

You need secure boot to use Windows 11 my guy,
Windows will still Boot fine but it won’t allow you to login

SO secure boot IS still needed,
as i said before i never had this issue till now.
Was able to dual boot with Secure Boot on just fine.

It works fine on my notebooks, but, dual boot is not supported by Garuda Linux.

Anyway, the guide to implement it is the Arch one:

But searching in the forum you’ll find several useful topics.

As said, this is not officially supported.

Microsoft itself says that the computer must be capable of secure boot, not that it must be activated in the requirements posted by @filo

First time I read this.
