I will partially quote The Register article on this topic:

*Therefore if your PC ships with Windows pre-installed, there is an
additional step to be taken to install Linux (or boot into something else)
involving a jump into the BIOS setup to enable the Microsoft 3rd Party UEFI
Certificate once again.*

Personally I would recommend reading the whole article:-
