You can't enable secure boot with Legacy mode enabled.

 

However if Windows is installed in Legacy mode, you can't disable legacy mode/enable secure boot or your PC will not boot up.

 

So the first thing to do is to determine if Windows is installed in legacy mode:

 

Type: System Information

 

The System information app should show up.

 

Run the app and look for the BIOS Mode line about 1/4 of the way down on the report.

 

Let me know if that line indicates Legacy or UEFI.
