How to Fix Windows 10 Getting Stuck on the BIOS Screen During Startup

When I turned on my computer today, it suddenly got stuck on the BIOS screen. I had to disable Secure Boot to boot into the system normally. I’d like to re-enable Secure Boot and boot up normally again. How can I fix this issue?

    The fact that your PC got stuck on the BIOS screen and required disabling Secure Boot suggests there might be an issue related to the boot configuration, firmware settings, or hardware compatibility.

    The issue you're experiencing, where Windows won't boot with Secure Boot enabled, is actually a known problem following certain recent Windows updates or system configurations. The good news is that in most cases, this can be resolved without reinstalling Windows.
