Which is why you want to have as many of these enabled in parallel when they exist (such as TPM + Secure Boot, i.e. and select the efisys.bin from desktop and save the .iso Now the Minitool.iso should boot into UEFI with Ventoy. If everything is fine, I'll prepare the repo, prettify the code and write detailed compilation and usage instructions, as well as help @ventoy with integration. That's an improvement, I guess?

WinPE10_8_Sergei_Strelec_x86_x64_2019.12.28_English.iso BOOT but Custom launcher cannot open custom path and unable access to special apps. However, I would say that, if you are already running "arbritrary" code in UEFI mode to display a user message, while Secure Boot is enabled, then you should be able to craft your own LoadImage()/StarImage() that doesn't go through SB validation (by copying the LoadImage()/StarImage() code from the EDK2 and removing the validation part). then there is no point in implementing a USB-based Secure Boot loader. Unsigned bootloader Linux ISOs or ISOs without UEFI support does not boot with Secure Boot enabled. @ventoy Thank you both for your replies. Users can update Ventoy by installing the latest version or using VentoyU, a Ventoy updater utility. This filesystem offers better compatibility with Window OS, macOS, and Linux. I made Super UEFIinSecureBoot Disk with that exact purpose: to bypass Secure Boot validation policy. etc. Test these ISO files with Vmware firstly. Yeah, I think UEFI LoadImage()/StarImage(), which is what you'd call to chain load the UEFI bootloader, are set to validate the loaded image for Secure Boot and not launch it for unsigned/broken images, if Secure Boot is enabled (but I admit I haven't formally validated that). If someone uses Ventoy with Secure Boot, then Ventoy should not green light UEFI bootloaders that don't comply with Secure Boot. I'm not sure whether Ventoy should try to boot Linux kernel without any verification in this case (. Sign up for a free GitHub account to open an issue and contact its maintainers and the community.

So, yeah, if you have access to to the hardware, then Secure Boot, TPM or whatever security measure you currently have on consumer-grade products, is pretty much useless because, as long as you can swap hardware components around, or even touch the hardware (to glitch the RAM for instance), then unless the TPM comes with an X-Ray machine that can scan and compare hardware components, you're going to have a very hard time plugging all the many holes through which a dedicated attacker can gain access to your data. what is the working solution? This seem to be disabled in Ventoy's custom GRUB). Tested on 1.0.77. Do NOT put the file to the 32MB VTOYEFI partition. You can open the ISO in 7zip and look for yourself.

Some modern systems are not compatible with Windows 7 UEFI64 (may hang) I would assert that, when Secure Boot is enabled, every single time an unsigned bootloader is loaded, a warning message should be displayed. I'll try looking into the changelog on the deb package and see if The point of this issue is that people are under the impression that because Ventoy supports Secure Boot, they will get the same level of "security" booting Secure Boot compliant media through Ventoy as if they had booted that same media directly, which is indeed a fair expectation to have, since the whole point of boot media creation software is to have the converted media behave as close as possible as the original would. I assume that file-roller is not preserving boot parameters, use another iso creation tool. So maybe Ventoy also need a shim as fedora/ubuntu does. Does it work on these machines (real or emulated) by booting it from a CDR / .iso image? ISO file name (full exact name) I'd be interested in a shim for Rufus as well, since I have the same issue with wanting UEFI:NTFS signed for Secure Boot, but using GRUB 2 code for the driver, that makes Secure Boot signing it impossible.
