Is Secure Boot still required for Win 11 to run this game?

So I have league of legends already installed and it works fine with the vanguard thing running in the background. But for valorant, is it still mandatory to take extra steps to enable secure boot features? I also heard you had to edit the registry to allow the service to work properly. I don’t want to run the risk of damaging my hardware just to get the game to work properly.

I have secure boot enabled already from what it looks like So can I just go straight to installing the game then? Or do I need to modify any startup options aside from the default

I forgot about the UEFI part for startup. I’m guessing that’s needed too? Cuz it may just be on secure default boot

Press win+r Type msinfo32 Show ss There it will say if secure boot state is on or not

Sorry for reviving this thread, but i checked my msinfo32 thing on run command. it says "secure boot state as ON" and BIOS is showing as "UEFI". i didnt even modify anything yet on my pc so i actually can run valo then right? im guessing its good to go already without having to do anything then?
