When I click under the above title it says 'I meet the requirements' and lists TPM 2.0, secure boot, UEFI, DEP etc..

Thank you

P.S. I luckily flashed the Bios which enabled TPM then enabled secure boot which flash disabled.
Do I need to do more?

The message you're seeing confirming that you meet the requirements such as TPM 2.0, Secure Boot, UEFI, DEP, and other security features is a good sign that your system has the necessary hardware and firmware components to be compatible with installing Windows 11. Here's a breakdown of how each of these features relates to Windows 11 compatibility: 1. TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module): - Windows 11 requires TPM 2.0, and the confirmation that you meet this requirement indicates that your system has the necessary security feature enabled. 2. Secure Boot: - Secure Boot is another prerequisite for Windows 11, and having it enabled is essential for system security and compatibility with Windows 11. 3. UEFI (Unified Extensible...

TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module): - Windows 11 requires TPM 2.0, and the confirmation that you meet this requirement indicates that your system has the necessary security feature enabled. 2. Secure Boot: - Secure Boot is another prerequisite for Windows 11, and having it enabled is essential for system security and compatibility with Windows 11. 3. UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface): - UEFI is the modern replacement for BIOS and is a requirement for Windows 11 installations. 4. DEP (Data Execution Prevention): - DEP helps prevent malicious code from running in certain memory locations and is a standard security feature. Based on the information provided, it seems like your system has the necessary hardware security features enabled, which is a positive sign for Windows 11 compatibility. Regarding whether you need to do more: 1. Additional Configurations: If your system already meets the basic security requirements, you may not need to do more. However, ensuring that your TPM is activated and Secure Boot is enabled is crucial for Windows 11 compatibility. 2. Windows 11 Installation: With TPM 2.0 enabled and Secure Boot activated, you are on the right track for a successful Windows 11 installation. Make sure to follow the recommended installation process. In summary, the message stating that you meet the security requirements is a good indicator that your system is in a suitable state for Windows 11. If you have enabled TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot, you are well-prepared for a Windows 11 upgrade. Always ensure that you follow any specific instructions provided during the installation process to complete the upgrade successfully.
