Prepare Your Device for Windows 11 - Step by Step
In many cases, Windows 11 is not going to be installed on high-configuration computers. Exactly why the problem is, in this article, we will look at the solution and what new benefits have come along.
Most users are facing the first and main problem with TPM 2.0. Press the Win + R button on your current Windows operating system PC to see if you have this TPM chip on your PC.
When the Run interface appears, type ‘tpm.msc’ and press Enter or click the OK button. If you have a TPM chip on your PC, the interface will look like the picture below.
And if there is no TPM chip, then the interface will show.
Even though most of the users have a TPM chip in their PC, it seems that Windows 11 will not run on their PC. In this case, the version of the TPM chip has to be updated.
In the beginning, check your PC's Device Manager to make sure you have a TPM chip. To do this, press the Win + R button again. When the run interface appears, type the command 'devmgmt.msc' and press Enter.
You will then see the TPM chip in the Security Devices tab. If the 'tpm.msc' command does not show your TPM chip but shows the TPM chip in Device Manager, then you need to activate the TPM chip from the BIOS.
Restart your PC to activate the TPM chip from the BIOS. And when it is turned off, enter the BIOS by pressing the F2 button (depending on the manufacturer may be F10, F2, F12, F1, or DEL button). Then go to the Security, Advanced, or Settings options, enter the Miscellaneous section, turn on Intel Platform Trust Technology (PTT) and save.
Then go to the boot menu, activate the secure boot option, and restart the PC with 'Save and Exit'.
If it still shows an error message about TPM, then you can download and install the TPM chip driver according to your model from the website of your motherboard brand. (Read Driver Solution Post: Driver Solution You Really Need) If the same model is already installed during installation, go to 'tpm.msc' from the run interface and Clear TPM.
Then your PC will restart and after restarting go to 'tpm.msc' again and click on Prepare the TPM or Setup TPM.
Still don't get TPM chip status, Then read how to proceed then...
First, start the run by pressing the Win + R button and give the command ‘regedit’ Then go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Setup and right-click on Setup and select New> Key.
Then press Enter with the file name ‘LabConfig’.
Now right-click the mouse on LabConfig and select New> DWORD (32-bit) value to create another value ‘BypassTPMCheck’, and set its data to ‘1’. Now create the BypassRAMCheck and BypassSecureBootCheck value and set the data to ‘1’, so that it looks like the image below.
Now close the registry editor. Your PC is ready to boot into Windows 11.
For those who have a TPM chip, go to Disk Management. To do this, press the Win + R button as usual and enter the run interface with the command ‘diskmgmt.msc’. Then right-click on your hard disk and go to Properties.
Then go to volumes and see if your partition style is GPT. If MBR, convert the hard drive / SSD to GPT mode. It is better to re-install Windows in GPT mode, as there is a risk of losing data when converting.
Lastly, if your hard drive's boot style is in GPT mode and the TPM chip is enabled, then your PC is supposed to be ready for Windows 11 updates.
