When Microsoft rolled out Windows 11 in October 2021, it made headlines for its shiny new features, sleeker interface, and—most controversially—a cast of stringent hardware requirements. At the heart of this new setup is the need for a Trusted Platform Module (TPM), specifically those conforming...
Upgrading to Windows 11 isn't just about flashy new interfaces and features; it often involves contending with rigorous hardware requirements that can be a hurdle for many users. Officially, Windows 11's compatibility hinges on having a Trusted Platform Module (TPM), specifically TPM 2.0, a...
Introduction

This question may be quite rudimentary to many of the experts here, but I just wish to not make a mistake that causes me great issues with my system and current data. I am currently running Windows 10 using ASUS prime Z270-A motherboard and intel i5 6500 cpu. My Motherboard has TPM 2.0 enabled...
My old computer seems to lack TPM 2.0 support. Can I bypass the TPM check and force-install Windows 11 on a computer and on virtual machines? Share your idea or useful script.
Hello everyone,
I recently attempted to upgrade my laptop to Windows 11, but I encountered some compatibility issues. My laptop, a [insert model and specs], seems to fall short of meeting some of the requirements for Windows 11, particularly in terms of TPM version and CPU compatibility...
Here's the short version: when I attempt to power up (using the power switch on the power supply) the computer powers up for only an instance and then powers off.
Here's the long version: on Friday I attempted to upgrade to Windows 11. I got an error message early in the installation, so I...

Hello all,
Used the manage-bde –forcerecovery command to test the recovery key that Windows automatically saved to my account, and now I am being prompted continuously to enter the recovery key even after suspending protection.
I understand that using this command would wipe the TPM protectors...

After enabling Secure Boot, Windows 10 will not boot, it goes to Automatic Repair. I am in UEFI mode, AMD TPM enabled and CSM disabled. I am using a Gigabyte Aorus X470 Gaming 5 WiFi MB, AMD Ryzen 5 3600X CPU, 2x8GB gSkill 3600 RAM, M.2 500GB SSD for C: drive and the latest Windows 10 upgrade...
My machine is over 10 years old, I cannot afford a new motherboard. Is Microsoft going to change these requirements. I really don't care about features of having TMP or Secure Boot.
When I click under the above title it says 'I meet the requirements' and lists TPM 2.0, secure boot, UEFI, DEP etc..
I am confused as to whether I do or don't meet security requirements. Also does this tell me whether I can install Windows 11?
Thank you
P.S. I luckily flashed the Bios which...

I am predicting this now: Windows 11 will be the worst Microsoft OS since Vista and 8, and it's all because of 11's stupid requirements.
Really Microsoft what the hell are you thinking, cutting off all processors made before 2017 all based on stupid requirements no one asked for.
TPM is a joke...
