Most customizations on your PC can be made from within Windows, but certain features are only accessible from the BIOS, such as virtualization, overclocking (in some cases), power-on password, and more. More importantly, your PC’s boot priority can only be controlled from the BIOS, which is crucial for Windows 11.
