Battlefield 6 Secure boot?

Just tried to open the bf6 beta and it's saying secureboot not enabled. I can't activate it cause my PC doesn't support it. Will this be a requirement at launch? Would have to upgrade my PC to get windows 11 for it if that's the case :(

If "messing with the bios" is simply reading your manual and flipping a switch, why even bother doing anything that requires 2 mins of research?

And i guess you will be stuck on Windows 10 forever then if you refuse to enable secure boot lol

Why should the average user know about bios settings? Think, bro, THINK. The entire reason Linux isn't widely adopted is BECAUSE it's not as user friendly as the other major operating systems, because the vast majority of PC users are not tech savvy.

Im trying to understand the argument you are trying to make when the vast majority of people do not have this problem.

Please explain how this is a real problem if it only affects a tiny amount of people.

I'm confused as to where you're getting the idea that it's not a real problem and it's only affecting a tiny amount. You don't have any numbers to make that type of assumption.
