I am trying to enable Secure Boot on my laptop in BIOS. However, it is grayed out.
Is it because I have a BIOS password enabled on my laptop?

Re: Secure Boot is grayed out in BIOS
I found the answer to this.
In BIOS, Legacy Support, which was the option just above Secure Boot, was enabled. When I changed it to Disabled, the Secure Boot field was no longer grayed out and gave me the option to change it. I was then able to select Enabled.
