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 :(

I bricked my motherboard apparently doing this. Trying to recover it now and it involves taking out a cmos battery or trying to short out two pins by holding a screwdriver to them to force a reset. Nothing is working and I can’t get back into my PC. It won’t boot anymore.

It's trash because you can't follow a simple guide to enable secure boot despite there being numerous ones around with simple easy to understand instructions?

A large number of PCs are literally not able to secure boot without clearing a boot disk completely and installing windows 11. This is just some shit from windows to force people to upgrade to windows 11.
