Secure Boot Violation on Razer 16 2023

I’m trying to follow the fix Razer posted, but the Secure Boot page in my BIOS appears to be read-only, so I’m unable to disable Secure Boot. I also tried setting an administrator password, but that did not change anything.

 

I saw some other people with the same issue but haven't seen any solutions.

Hey there, ​@resiakone 

Thank you for sharing your concern here. I understand that you are also experiencing a secure boot violation error on your Razer Blade 16. Please try these troubleshooting steps below to help resolve your concern:  

 

1. Get an empty USB Thumb Drive

2. Disable the secure boot in BIOS, power up the system

3. Run Command Prompt as Administrator In a command window, copy the recovery app to the USB Thumb drive using the following commands (assuming the USB Thumb drive is the “D:” drive). Type each command separately and then press Enter:


 

md D:\EFI\BOOT

 

copy C:\windows\boot\efi\securebootrecovery.efi D:\efi\boot\bootx64.efi


 

4. Enable secure boot in BIOS

5. Insert the flash drive, restart the device, press F12 and select boot from the flash drive.

6. Follow on screen instruction


Issue should be resolved. If the issue come back after user disconnect power adaptor for more than 20s, that means the CMOS battery is no longer working, and user need to change that. 


Please let me know via PM how the steps work so I can assist you further. Thank you!
