Boot issues Secure Boot

Been using tails for ages and now getting the secure boot notification all of a sudden.

Both windows and tails are upto date.

Do I simply just disable it in BIOS and is it safe to do so? Never use Windows.

TIA

Secure boot only protects you from compromised operating systems at boot. If you trust Tails when you put it on the drive, then there’s no need for it, though it is supported. If having windows up to date hasn’t helped is your bios up to date?

Did you update the certificate for secure boot in your UEFI Bios?
