Hello I don't know if this is the right place to ask but, I am in trouble here. My pc boots straight to windows without showing the option to get into my bios which it did a few weeks ago I don't know what happened. I can not boot into the Ufei after restarting, I get a black screen. same goes for pushing the key to get into the bios, just, black screen. is there a setting that somehow got enabled preventing me to get into the bios? I checked, I think. This is all the information I can give. My pc is running fine. I just can't get into the bios what so ever. I installed nox to play some android games on my pc since it was more comfortable, it kept crashing the pc due to virtualization not being enabled I am not sure if something from nox disabled the bios access, I doubt it. I was careful to disallow anything it wanted to install.

You turned it off most likely.  Try spamming [delete] or whichever key your motherboard manual says as soon as you start the machine. That may do it

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

maybe a setting in the bios has been changed, reset your bios to default

or 

In your Start Menu, select the power option thing, hold Shift and click Restart. It'll reboot once and put you into the Windows boot options, from there click Troubleshoot, Advanced Options and then select UEFI Firmware Settings or something similar.

This will also do it, but it will wipe any changes you made to bios in the past.

This is the technically correct way to do it.

Thank you for the tips, I will try the CMOS as doing the UEFI way still doesn't work for me

Clearing the cmos will work but it does it by setting the thing to full default. Everything is forgotten and brand new again.  Wiping all bios changes.  If this is what you want and you haven’t done something like create a bunch of fan curves in bios or something it will be fine and is more or less the most foolproof.   If it’s NOT what you want (for example when setting up a machine I can spend an hour or more tweaking fan curves for silence and cooling.  That would wipe it all) use @aldesave1’s move. Mine is faster and goes to the same place, but you need to know which key to hit. With @aldesave1’s you don’t.
