OH I see....so the only way to install windows 7 on a UEFI computer is through USB?

...that depends.....whether the bios allows booting from usb or not and or other issues....and can be slower than installing from disc as well.......
after i fresh install Windows 7, can i enable secure boot back on?
i am using Dell OptiPlex 9020
Yes i did.
I disabled secure boot then I fresh install Windows 7 then i installed latest Windows updates and drivers then i enabled secure boot then it doesn't boot then i disabled secure boot then it boots fine. Why is that?
Are you sure you installed Windows 7 with UEFI and not Legacy BIOS?
If you did install UEFI, then see if clearing the keys for secure boot and installing them again in BIOS may help.
