Yes I've taken note of all comments but just because a machine is old does not mean it is not capable of carrying out the tasks assigned to it. Shelling out over £1000 plus because Microsoft wish to...

Used Windows for many years but I fear the latest requirement for TPM will be the end of Windows for me. Both home laptops do not have TPM so Windows 11 will not install. I will not be spending £1000...
