Uefi boot options.

Can you explain what means in practice these 2 commands as in topic title?

When or why do you select these ones?

And, second question: how do you link these 2 commands with secure boot options?

Thanks

Looks like you are in the BIOS.

 

If you have the original OS installed,  do yourself a favor and don't play with either of those options.

 

Changing the current Secure boot option setting may leave your os in an unbootable state. That would not be good.

 

Unless you know how to code the UEFI BIOS firmware you cant link the options

Sorry, but you didn't answer to my questions, only comments. Or you know it or thanks anyway.

I know as much as I did before.

Secure Boot helps to make sure that your PC boots using only firmware that is trusted by the manufacturer.

My comment about secure boot is both an answer and a caution.

 

HP default keys are the operating system activation key.

I dont'have any problem, only knowledege needs (HP documentation s very poor about this stuff: 2 my questions).

I know what is secure boot, it exists until Intel invented Efi (2003).

So HP Factory Default Keys are Windows 10 activation keys (for example)? Sounds a bit strange.

And Clear All Secure Boot Keys (there is also this question in title)?

Thanks for reply.
