Hi, I have seen several guides on there but the methods are inconclusive. And the laptop user guide doesn't have the information

I am trying to do a fresh Windows 10 install.

 

1) How do you disable secure boot? Without enable legacy boot. So I can boot a Windows bootable USB in GPT mode. If disabled, it keeps getting re-enabled after restart even when I "Save and Exit". Even if I set an Admin password on BIOS (UEFI).

I absolutely do not want to boot in legacy mode.

2) If I clear the Secure Boot keys.. what happens? What are the keys anyway?

 

3) If clear them to disable secure boot, can I get them back and reenable Secure Boot?

 

4) Some people have mentioned that the keys are the "OEM windows activation key".. is it so?

 

Thank You
