Whats up with this TPM 2.0 thing?
It essentially keeps your drive encrypted before bootup to keep you safe from cyber miscreants.
How do I know if I have TPM 2.0?
There are many ways to test whether your PC is compatible with TPM 2.0.
The easiest way might be looking for it in unit Manager.
Press the Windows button on your keyboard or opt for Start menu button and jot down gadget Manager.
You should see a list of your PCs components.
Look for an item that says Security Devices.
Expand that, and you should see Trusted Platform Module 2.0.
If you see TPM 1.2 instead or nothing at all you wont be able to run Windows 11.
How can I peek if my processor is compatible?
Here are the lists forAMD,Intel, andQualcommCPUs.
Isnt there just an app I can use to check?
Itll scan your system and let you know if it can run Windows 11 based on current known requirements.
Just keep in mind theres a chance it can be wrong, being an unofficial tool and all.
Hopefully, youll know by now whether it’s possible for you to run Microsofts latest and greatest OS.
