Yeah I have SB but it's off, checked for TPM but I can't find it. Checked really hard in BIOS, everything! Same thing for SB, well hidden prob! (Changes to Windows 10 install thingy in BIOS won't bring up SB either)

I have 2.0 tpm and nothing in the bios regarding a tpm setting. but my computer is compatible for windows 11. You may not need a tpm option in the bios for windows 11 compatibility. You might only need a tpm 2.0 module to buy for the motherboard.

Can't activate secure boot in bios?
It has been said in a comment in this thread, secure boot is not a requirement for windiws 11.

I'll turn it off and run WindowsPCHealthCheckSetup to see ...



edit: I disabled secure boot and started WindowsPCHealthCheckSetup I am compatible with windows 11.

Oh, for @steve108 , @kado897 and any others following the broken busted Startup Impact on Win 10 since last August, it is alive and well on Win 11. At least until it's officially released.

I was hoping to get an answer

Unfortunately my PC doesn't have TPM or TPM module connector, so no Windows 11 for me unless there's a workaround for the RTM version

Hi folks
On a VM I can "Emulate" TPM 2.0 (Pass thru for real hardware available too but emulated might be a good test) so it might be worth a try with an "Official Build" when available -- I've had no problem with the previous leaked build. I wonder also if isos will eventually become available via UUPDUMP as well.

OK this VM is a W2K19 Server but I can create a W11 VM with similar "Virtual hardware" once I get official Iso. The Unofficial one worked perfectly. On my machine if TPM is disabled in the BIOS then I can't add TPM via add hardware in the VM as it doesn't show up. Enabling it then I can add. I think the TPM is integrated into the MOBO -- some computers need a separate chip.

I'm expecting them to be.

@johngalt -- do some other VM systems allow "Emulation of TPM" even if the physical hardware doesn't exist. - Some old MBR systems (although capable of UEFI boot) allow VM's to use UEFI and secure boot even though they have been booted up in MBR / legacy BIOS mode. VMWare seems to be quite flexible in that type of thing. Do older MBR only boot machines have TPM functionality -- if they do probably not 2.0. Just a query so don't spend a lot of time on it !!!

so yeah hyped... lol
I wonder if I can upgrade Windows 10 to 11 without losing my config and install, games etc..
I don't have $ to build another PC.. and
