About this tag
The allowupgradeswithunsupportedtpmorcpu tag covers methods to bypass Microsoft's hardware requirements for upgrading Windows 10 to Windows 11 on PCs without TPM 2.0 or a supported CPU. Content describes two practical workarounds: a registry tweak that relaxes checks during in-place upgrade, and a Rufus-created ISO that automates deeper bypasses for machines lacking TPM or UEFI. These approaches allow many older Windows 10 PCs to upgrade, but trade-offs and risks are noted for home users, refurbishers, and IT pros. The tag focuses on upgrade bypass techniques, not general troubleshooting or hardware support.
