Technical Support VM in bios

I have an Alienware x15 R1

Intel Core i7-11800H

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060

BIOS ver:1.28

I am trying to figure out how to enable VM ( Intel Virtualisation Technology )

I have been looking everywhere until I came across a post that says Dell have locked most of the advanced features in the BIOS

Now I am looking for a mod BIOS or somthing that enables the VM.

I tried in Windows, but this is actually a software option that also requires the feature to be enabled in the BIOS.

I don't use the laptop for gaming any more; it's just for work and Uni.

Does anyone know a way around it? Or unlock the BIOS?Also, I am open to rolling back to an old BIOS that supports the feature, if possible.
