    TPM and Core Isolation


    I started, more out of stubbornness, "PC Integrity Check" even though I already knew that my HP Envy 17" laptop has an Intel i7-5500U processor which seems not suitable for installing Windows 11 and therefore there is no hope . Topic closed in this regard.

    But "PC Integrity Check" reported that the TPM 2.0 was not enabled and a bit out of curiosity or maybe out of stubbornness or stupidity I went to enable it in the UEFI and also "Core Isolation" which strangely worked fine in previous versions of Windows 10 which, however, I no longer remember in which version while now, for some time now, by activating "Memory integrity" the analysis signals that it is not possible to activate memory integrity as there are 3 incompatible drivers:

    The situation in the "Device security" tab is this:

    and in "Core isolation details" with the button disabled, which if active gives the incompatibilities of the first image above:

    Now what I would like to ask you can I leave the settings like this or is it better to disable the TPM, but how? From UEFI?

    As for "Core Isolation" I have already tried other times to disable it from the UEFI and have never run into problems will it bethe same by disabling the TPM from the UEFI?


    In short, do I need the TPM and does it make the PC more secure for the encryption features, even though I don't know about what 'things', in my installed version 22H2-19045.386 of Windows 10 Home?

    P.S.
    At the moment it seems that the computer with these settings works fine, but what about the future?

    Hi, you might find this summary useful:

    Quite a bit more technical:

    Dalchina, thank you for the answer but what I would like to know, not having sufficient technical preparation to be able to argue on topics that are beyond my abilities, and if:

    - can I keep these settings as they are now or it is better that I return to the previous state and if it is better to disable the TPM for my Home Edition it is sufficient that I act in disabling it in the Uefi without running into problems also because the upgrade to Windows 11 in any case is precluded to me because the Intel processor is not suitable?

    If your PC is working now, simply leave TPM alone...

    As for Win 11, as I said, it's possible to bypass hardware restrictions which are set by the installer; Win 11 will actually run on a much wider range of processors- under the hood it's very like Win 10.

    Dalchina, thanks again really: I won't touch the enabling of the TPM in the Bios-Uefi if you think this won't cause me problems at least until a few years, but if I have to do it, just go back to disable it in the Bios or in another way? Thanks also for informing me that it is possible to bypass the hardware restrictions, but I don't feel confident or able to do it.

    There is of course a tutorial:
    Verify Trusted Platform Module (TPM) Chip on Windows PC

    - in the huge searchable Tutorials section- well worth using.

    Should you wish to enable it, that's covered there too.
