Boot loop after restore fixed by disabling Secure Boot

[yastil]

System:

• Gigabyte B650M GAMING X AX
  
• Ryzen 7 7700X
  
• Samsung 990 PRO 1TB
  
• Windows 11 25H2
  
• Secure Boot ON
  
• TPM ON
  
• Hasleo Backup Suite (full system restore)
  

Issue:
After restoring a previously working full system image (including EFI), the system entered a BIOS/boot loop.
Important details:

• BIOS still detected the NVMe SSD and rescue USB correctly.
  
• Selecting either Windows Boot Manager or the USB device returned directly back to BIOS with no error message.
  
• Rescue USB also could not boot.
  
• Windows only booted again after:
  
  1. BIOS factory reset
     
  2. disabling Secure Boot
     

Additional observation:
After Windows successfully booted again, Windows requested a new PIN login, similar to what happens after BIOS/TPM/Secure Boot changes.
Current state:

• System now fully stable
  
• SFC/DISM clean
  
• EFI OK
  
• WinRE OK
  
• Secure Boot can now be enabled again successfully
  

Possible cause:
UEFI Secure Boot / TPM / EFI trust-chain mismatch after restoring the EFI partition from image backup. Best regards. yastil

Interesting. With the system now working are you able to boot from the Emergency USB either with Secure Boot on or off?
