Can I Safely Change My BIOS to UEFI on Windows 11?

I have a Windows 11 computer, which is using Legacy BIOS. I plan to convert the drive to GPT and set it as the system disk. Can I safely change my bios to UEFI on Windows 11? I need some instructions. Thanks.

After upgrading your Windows to a higher edition or setting the GPT drive as your system disk, you must change the boot mode from Legacy to UEFI. However, converting the drive from MBR to GPT and changing the boot mode from Legacy to UEFI can have certain risks and potential issues. Don't worry. I will introduce two powerful and professional tools for the two daunting tasks.
