The requirement of the TPM to have Windows 11 has brought many upside down, although there is a trick to install Windows 11 without the need for TPM that we will explain below, so you can skip this requirement that we met a few days ago.
Users who wanted to check if their PC was compatible with Windows 11 had to run a utility that Microsoft offered to users, many of them were surprised that they did not meet the minimum requirements , but without further details.
Precisely the TPM is one of them, the availability of this element was essential until we learned that the PC really had to have TPM 1.2 at least (something that many more computers comply with), so TPM 2.0 was already an optional requirement .
But TPM will continue to be, as you can see, a mandatory requirement that you must comply with, but in the last few hours we have known a trick to skip it and be able to install Windows 11 is a computer without TPM , which makes your unsupported computer compatible .
Creating a registry key
One of the proposed methods is to create a specific key in the Windows registry , so that the system check to see if it meets the TPM requirement will be skipped, and Windows 11 can be installed on unsupported devices. Do this:
- Press the Windows + R keys, type “regedit” and hit Enter.
- Once you are inside the Windows registry, go to the path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ Setup.
- Create a new key called LabConfig with two DWORDs , one called BypassTPMCheck with the value 00000001 and another called BypassSecureBootCheck with the value 00000001.
By pressing Enter and restarting the system the key would already be configured, now when trying to install Windows 11 you should be able to do so because the message that your computer is not compatible with the new system should no longer appear.
Bear in mind something, the leaked ISO of Windows 11 can give some other failure, so it is not recommended to install it as the main operating system, you can do tests in a virtual machine, or also wait for it to be officially available in a few months.
This method that we have shown you should allow you to install Windows 11 on a computer without meeting the TPM requirement , but you may still not be able to install it because you probably do not meet other mandatory Windows 11 requirements that you must have to have the new version of Windows, so that’s something you should be aware of.
