Hello, I just ordered a prebuilt PC and when I went to go play one of the games called Valorant, it said I needed secure boot and TPM 2.0 enabled, I checked and TPM was enabled but when I went to check on the secure boot, the option was enabled but right under it, it says "not active" which I find very strange. The computer is already in Windows 11 so I am very confused as to why this is happening and why it is not active.

Did you ask the support of the game manufacturer.

Sometimes resellers use an Image, rather than a clean installation, so maybe a clean instalaltion of Windows, with the chipset drivers, and graphics drivers will help.
But it's strange that a game requests secure boot, to me that sounds suspicious.
