Switch Legacy to UEFI. I want to convert my boot SSD (Samsung 512 GB) from MBR partition to GPT using Microsoft's MBR2GPT tool, switching firmware modes from Legacy BIOS to UEFI. Can I accomplish the switch to UEFI simply by enabling Secure Boot and disabling Legacy Support in the Secure Boot Configuration Menu of the HP BIOS setup utility? Will the system automatically boot from the newly converted SSD? If not, what else do I need to do? Thanks.

Windows 10 Home v.1909 build 18363.535. System board 839F 1.0; Sys BIOS F.21
