How do I get my MacBook Pro M2 into recovery/options mode?

On an M1/M2 Mac with Apple Silicon, you access the special boot options by holding the power button (aka TouchID button) until the special startup menu appears. FYI, the TouchID button is the power button. It is just a power button with extra bio-metric features.

I 100% agree with @leroydouglas about avoiding anti-virus apps, cleaning apps, and third party security software since they usually cause more problems than they solve plus they impact system performance as these types of apps interfere with the normal operation of macOS. If your employer insists you have some sort of anti-virus software on your Mac, then see if they will allow you to use MalwareBytes instead. It is the least intrusive and troublesome anti-virus type app out there.

Do I actually need to press the TouchID? or just hold my finger on it?

Press and hold until the special boot options appear.

Hey guys,

I'm probably being a bit daft, but I can't figure it out and none of the internet answers worked.

I need to get my MacBook Pro M2 into recovery mode so I can enable System Extensions for Nord suite.

Third party AntiVirus is not recommended— it typically does nothing but add issues to the macOS and competes directly with Apple’s own built in security:
