I have a COMPAQ PRO 6300 Mt that is running on Windows 10 with Legacy settings, now with windows 11 coming up that requires secure boot, I can not be able to upgrade. As a windows insider, I was informed that my computer is not able to run Windows 11 previews

Hi:
Your PC won't be able to run W11 for more reasons that that.
As of now, Intel PC's need to have an 8th gen core processor or newer and a TPM having version 2.0.
The HP 6300 Pro only as a TPM version 1.2 and it cannot be upgraded.
If you want to enable secure boot, you would need to reinstall W10 in EFI mode.
To do that, you boot your W10 installation media from one of the EFI boot sources listed in the F9 boot options menu (EFI USB or EFI DVD).
