On the day of the termination of support for Windows 7 (January 10) by Microsoft, the company “gave” the OS a strange update. The new feature, called Secure Boot, is inoperative, according to the publication Neowin.

Secure Boot is included in the UEFI system, which consists of security options for pre-installed programs. It prohibits the use of programs not licensed by Microsoft and PC and laptop manufacturers, protecting against the execution of “unauthorized code.”

The implementation of this function remains in question. Yes, after activation Secure Boot, Windows 7 freezes when you restart the PC. The problem is that together with Windows 7x, the VGA video output drivers were not updated, according to experts of the publication

Recall that support for the “seven” and “eight” Windows ended on January 10.
