The solution is that Windows computers that support TPM 1.2 and above can install the operating system.
Although Windows 11 still requires your PC to support TPM 2.0, there is a workaround for computers that do not have the necessary hardware. Microsoft has already provided a solution.
To make a long story short, TPM (Trusted Platform Module) is a technology for protecting computer data. Upgrading TPM means upgrading the security of Windows 11 users. However, although many pcs support TPM 2.0, not all pcs support it. Now there is a formal solution. According to PC Gamer, Microsoft has published a tutorial on its support page that outlines how to install Windows 11 on a machine without TPM 2.0.
Microsoft clarified in the tutorial that it is not recommended to install on any PC that does not meet the requirements. It also encourages customers to seek support before attempting any installation methods other than the standard route. Your PC will still need to support at least TPM 1.2. Keeping this in mind, here is the method it describes.
First, you must make sure that the BIOS of the TPM has been activated. The specific steps depend on your hardware equipment. For more information, please check GameSpot’s tutorial to learn how to enable TPM 2.0 on your PC, if you have it, and how to activate it if you don’t.
