Windows 11 can't enter into BIOS

I can't get into BIOS on Windows 11. Setup Menu is never shown. I tried few steps but still can't get into BIOS. MSI Z690 is the MB.

Click restart while holding the shift key down untul you see a menu, Select troubleshoot and advanced optionsSelect UEFI firmware setting in the next menu and then restart. When it restarts it will take you to the bios.

    I have several PC's with windows 11 installed on them . This particular PC was able to get into BIOS in the past . I know about holding down shift and selecting restart .

    IT DOES NOT WORK !!!!

    This is the most unbelievable problem I have seen with this miserable software yet !

    How and the hell are we supposed to operate with garbage like this ? I can't even get into my cooling fan profile . How am I supposed to get in when this software blocks access to the most basic part of the PC ?

    I mean how am I supposed to get rid of this software if I want to ? I CANT INTO BIOS I CANT CHANGE BOOT ORDER ? To get rid of this software I have to take apart the PC and remove the SSD ?

     

    What will be the goal of windows 12 ? ..........SPARKS AND EXPLOSIONS ?

     

    Thats one way to sell computer merchandise although I doubt the fire marshal would like it ?

      I have fixed this issue by using the onboard graphics hdmi port, since AsRocks onboard graphic is apparently only way to catch the BIOS boot up 🙄

        I bought a Periboard 409p that has the old school purple PS2 plug that gets me into BIOS everytime. But I have Intel , I dont think AMD has a PS2 port.

      I understand your frustration, but is it a Windows 11 problem? Does sound like an MSI thing?

        NO METHOD WORKS . I have several PC's running windows 11 . They all have one problem or another . TWO OF THEM HAVE IDENTICAL HARDWARE .
        I can get into BIOS on one of them , not this one .
        Its not a hardware problem or I would see it twice .
        ASUS PRIME Z690 A . I9-12900KF . 64gb DDR5 RAM . Quadro p5000 graphics .
        I have tried using powershell , I have tried shutdown /r /o /f /t 00 .
        Nothing works . After a long time the machine boots back up in windows
        THIS IS A GARBAGE SOFTWARE PROBLEM , NOT A HARDWARE PROBLEM .
        I have been using windows since version 3.1 over 30 years ago .
        Nothing compares to just how fu>king bad this software is !
