Yes, set the OS Type to Windows UEFI so that Secure Boot is enabled and everything will be configured correctly.

    Installing Windows 11?

    Check if Secure Boot is enabled, click on the Start menu and type msinfo32

    Search for Secure Boot and see if it is on.

    Okay, before you perform a clean install of Windows 11, create a backup of your files in case you need to save them.

    Disable the CSM, during the installation delete the partitions and create a new one so that it is created in GPT.
