Go to SolutionExpiring secure boot certificate
I have two Inspiron laptops that are out of warranty. I have just read an article in ZDNET concerning the Microsoft Secure Boot certificates from 2011 to expire in June 2026. (https://www.zdnet.com/article/secure-boot-certificate-updates-2026/?utm_source=iterable&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=techtoday)
Running the command to check if the new certificate has already been installed, both laptops returned 'false'. What do I need to do to get the updated certificates?

Check the model numbers at the link below. Almost anything more than about five years old won't be receiving an update.
