Windows Installer Question

Hi - new here (have quickly tried Q4OS previously, but didn't use it very long).
the instructions for the Windows installer talk about setting up UEFI & something called 'mok'.
I'm going to use this installer in Win10 using 'Legacy' bios, so can I ignore
the UEFI instructions?
Will this installer automatically recognize 'Legacy' bios & not prompt me about UEFI?
I'm going to put this on a friend's computer & I'm doing it remotely & this Windows Installer
seems like the easiest way to do this.
Once Q4OS is installed I'm hoping to put Teamviewer on so I can help him with
setting things up - I'm assuming Teamviewer can be installed w/o too much hassle.
Right - or wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, you can just ignore the MOK enrollment part, as it's needed only for the "Secure boot" enabled systems. There will be no MOK prompt at Q4OS installation, as installer detects BIOS and configures the boot-loader automatically.

Right, it should work well.
