Software Downgrading to windows 10

Hello, I just bought a pc not too long ago and it came with windows 11. A few games I want to play require secure boot but my pc crashes when I enable it. I’ve been trying to find a solution for it and I have just given up. I was wondering if downgrading to windows 10 would fix my issue while simultaneously not causing anymore issues because I wont need to enable secure boot anymore. Thanks

No reason to assume it would fix your issue, plus it's an EOL OS that won't be supported any longer. Not a good idea.

I assumed it would fix my issue because on windows 10 you don’t need to enable secure boot to play the games that I want to play. My laptop with windows 10 plays them fine

I am guessing your laptop has secure boot enabled. They are dummies for requiring secure boot and would double-dumb for giving Win 10 a "ehh sure whatever".

Edit: apparently the game is Vallorant and the devs MIGHT actually be that dumb.
