So I got a new HP Victus 2023, and I want to install Fedora on it, it has an RTX 4050 and has win11 preinstalled, my last laptop was a 2014 Toshiba and I only had to disable secure boot for Linux to run, is there something else to disable before installing Fedora ? Maybe TPM?

    If you plan on dual booting, remember to disable fast startup on the windows side, or you won’t be able to access the windows partition(s) as read/write in Linux. I have to dual boot for school, (God damn you, Lockdown Browser!) But as soon as I’m done, I’m dropping MS like the hot steaming pile it is.

      I ran Lockdown in Wine without any problems during my time at school. Given, this was about 7 years ago so things may have changed.

        I tried it in Lutris and in a VM, neither worked. I never tried it just in Wine. Hmm… Well, I have two weeks left of school, so I don’t know if it’s worth trying anymore.
