OK, so lets do that. First I have to turn Secure Boot back on.
This will be on the 5950X. Then I can select the Win10 on the same
machine, and see what is cooking over there.

First Win11.

                   No further certificate changes are needed."  [SBAT status being ignored]

Yes, this is an Administrator Terminal, but currently, either "value" can show
up for the current working directory, for either terminal type.

Oh, and the box logs in without using a password (local account) :-) Don't
ask me how that happened, I haven't a clue.

Now, we'll hop over to the Win10 side, and see what it says. The Win10 does not
have a Recovery partition. I hope it doesn't break anything. Doing a backup
before heading over...
