Bro you serious?!
1 hour ago, Themfolks said:I just read today that Microsoft has dropped TPM requirement already. Thanks for the info, though I'll check it out.
No. Microsoft will not drop TPM 2.0. Supported CPU may reduce to older chips, depending on the cash and performance analytics collected from Insiders. But TPM 2.0 WILL BE (at release) a hard requirement to install Windows 11. This is not a problem for any system for many years. They all have TPM 2.0 chips or firmware level TPM equivalent (which is fine by Microsoft). Microsoft wants to take advantage of TPM 2.0 to improve the OS security. While the code base technically support system without TPM 2.0 as it is based on Windows 8 and 10, the install will check for that. Now, knowing Microsoft, you can bet it will be easy to by-pass. Microsoft doesn't really care. It is more for OEMs and wants to push DIY builders to have it enabled by default. The big issue isn't with OEMs. It is more with DIY systems, where motherboard manufacture, for some reason, set it to disable.
So anyways, the restriction is not set for Insider builds of Windows 11. But it will be once released.
Therefore, you have the warning, but you still have the button "Get Started". But anyways, in your case, as mentioned, you have TPM 2.0 in firmware form (fTPM). So it's all good.
