Let me just put my entire frustration here. Especially to those who comment "your computer is not up to standards, just implement it".
Not everyone's computer does support it.
Not every computer can support it.I am playing on a virtual server. Because it is more economically sensible for me.
With virtualized servers, none of the providers is capable of enabling secure boot (Shadow, Paperspace, ...). It is technically not possible as of this point. These anti cheat measures therefore force everyone out of playing the game. Why is almost every other company able to run without it? Why was it okay to play with out it for multiple years and now it isn't anymore?
In past years the only one good action I saw EA do was open source CnC. This is again another move to turning away loyal gamers, by needlessly enforcing people to mess with their hardware to play a game. Wondering how many people bricked their systems with it.
Since the next BF will enforce it as well, I'm out.

If running Windows 11, search their website and they have a step-by -step solution to enable secure boot. And since every motherboard is different, check their website as well. I had a problem at first because I couldn't find the location in the menus to throw the correct sequence of switches for this. Now I can't join my friends because of this change, but that's an entirely different issue.

"game not work" is not much to go with. Make a screenshot or tell more about that exact error you get.

It could be very tricky, depending on each BIOS and motherboard. But normally all BIOSes have a section that says "search" In this section, just type "Secure Boot" and the search itself will take you directly to Secure Boot without you having to search for places you don't know. Once you find Secure Boot, simply enable it and it is very important not to forget to Save before exiting the BIOS, otherwise when you restart the PC it will be disabled again. Normally, in all BIOSes, it even shows at the bottom of the screen which keys are for Save, Exit, and Save and Exit. If I'm not mistaken I think it's F12 To save and exit, but either way you always get confirmation whether you want to save and exit or just exit. It's not very difficult. But I understand that for those who have never done it the first time it can be a little confusing. If you still can't do it, then ask someone to make a video call via WatsApp and guide you through the BIOS, because it is not possible to share videos or images during BIOS sessions, this is how I helped the people in my community. It's a 2 minute thing.
