I need to reinstall Linux Mint but MOK Management is preventing me from booting into the live CD. I tried looking for a solution online but (assuming I did everything correctly) I couldn’t find anything that actually worked for me. How do I properly disable it?

Also, I forgot to mention that I do have access to Linux Mint, I just have to run it in recovery mode because it wont boot normally.

    mokutil --disable-validation

    Though this sounds more like a case of needing to disable secure boot in your bios ? As far as i know Mint has no secure boot support, and the mokutil keys of a previous installation wouldn’t affect a fresh one

      Ok so it turns out that I got that error message because I forgot to use sudo, but it still didn’t disable MOK. However, as I stated in the update in my post, I was able to get around MOK with my password and I’m currently reinstalling Mint.
