Yes, I am afraid it sometimes becomes a necessity. Glad you got it sorted.

2024-03-25T00:43:16+00:00 So I did all those steps before I came here, cause thats better than asking around and the last step I did was to delete all partitions and thats what fixed the secure boot and also corrupted windows installations which is sad but it was a solution. I wasnt very hesitant at first but it did work for me and Im happy it did but it is a last resort.

How to Create Bootable USB Flash Drive to Install Windows 11
https://www.yourwindowsguide.com/2021/09/create...
Boot from the USB Flash drive: Make sure you have disabled Secure boot/Fast boot in BIOS Settings and change the boot order if required.
When you have successfully booted from the Installation media, click Repair your computer at the first screen after choosing the keyboard layout.
Choose Command Prompt in the list of troubleshooting.
Get the Current Windows Installation drive letter, which is either C, D, or E, Type BCDEDIT, and Press Enter. Note the letter.
Enter the command given below:
chkdsk X: /f /r (Replace X with the Current Windows Install Letter)
You would see the output and restart the PC to check when done.

2024-03-23T15:30:58+00:00 So when I removed them and reboot, and reinstall it, it gives me the same error which confuses me on why. They also give errors of it being locked when I try to reinstall them (which the reboot does allow me to install it but its still weird how it doesnt fix it)

I'm Sumit, here to answer your query at the Microsoft Community.
In the Secure boot option, did you try installing all the Factory keys?
I think your disk has an issue if it is slowly booting.
Hope that helps, and rely on us for any further inquiries. All the best.
