If the Secure Boot option in BIOS is grayed out and cannot be changed, it may be because the option is locked by the administrator or there are other settings in the system that are preventing changes. To resolve this issue, you can try the following methods:

  1. Ensure that you have administrator privileges: If you are not an administrator, you may not be able to change the Secure Boot settings. Make sure you have sufficient permissions to make modifications.
  2. Restore default settings: Trying to restore BIOS settings to default sometimes unlocks locked options. You can find the option to restore default settings in the BIOS settings.
  3. Updating BIOS: Sometimes the BIOS firmware may contain bugs or issues, causing the Secure Boot option to be unchangeable. Trying to update the BIOS firmware to the latest version may resolve the issue.
  4. Check for hardware issues: Sometimes hardware problems can also cause the Secure Boot option to be unable to change. Verify if your computer hardware is functioning properly.

If none of the above methods can solve the problem, it is recommended to contact the computer manufacturer or seek professional technical support for help.
