I just purchased a PC HP Z6 G5.
I have installed a win OS 11 successfully to my HP Z6 G5 workstation.
- But after i remove the "USB installer" and restart. My PC didn't cannot boot to BIOS (the wolf security screen didn't launch)
I tried to press F10 to bios setting but nothing happen.
- When I re-plug the USB installer, the wolf security screen launch normally, the PC can boot to BIOS and can press F9, choose the SSD and boot to window successfully.
This mean, without the USB installer, my PC cannot boot to bios.
I think my SSD has lost some information for PC to read the boot information.
Or something relevant to setting the secure boot that skip my SSD?
Could someone know about this can help me to fix it ?

Greetings @Chris_TQN
Welcome back to the Forum.
I can't say for sure but it sounds like the bootloader (EFI System Partition) has installed on the USB stick.
If true, this is a very unusual event.
I'm not familiar with Wolf Security. I don't have any HP business/enterprise PCs or Workstations.
I have no idea why you cannot enter Setup (F10) when the USB stick is not connected to the PC.
It appears Wolf Security might be hanging around in the EFI System Partition which may now be located on the W11 USB installer stick.
Start a second thread in the HP Business PC Forum.
