2023 Certificates

If, when using Method 1 in the linked page, I get the result "True" to both commands, am I okay re 2023 certificates ?

https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000385747/how-to-check-secure-boot-certificates


My reasons for concern Are: 

(1) that I see the value = 0 to this Key:

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PolicyManager\default\SecureBoot\EnableSecurebootCertificateUpdates

AND

I came across some information speaking of setting scheduled tasks, etc. and I am not knowledgable enough to ferret out the stuff that doesn't apply to my case - Windows 10 Pro.

    You can go to Windows Security, then click on Device Security.  Check the status under Secure Boot, if you see the message below, you are okay for 2023 certificates: 

    Secure Boot is on and all all required certificate updates have been applied.  No further certificate changes are needed.

    Thanks for replying. I am not using a Windows 10 ESU pc so unlikely to get that message. I do have the green 'thumbs up' on the Secure Boot (icon) but I don't believe that is indicative of the 2023 certs being applied.

    I will do more research on this unless you have something further to add; I've seen a number of your postings so I appreciate your expertise level.  

    PS No hurry but I think I will enable the registry (ie value) I mentioned; can't see anything working as it stands.
