Microsoft has firmly stated that the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 requirement for Windows 11 is non-negotiable, dismissing any hopes for lowered hardware standards.
The tech giant emphasized the importance of TPM 2.0 for enhancing security, data protection, and system integrity.
The hardware chip assists with encrypting data, confirming digital signatures, and supporting security features like BitLocker and Secure Boot.
Despite workarounds and bypass tools that allowed unsupported hardware to run Windows 11, Microsoft is gradually locking down compatibility checks, particularly with the 24H2 update.
The company is now focusing on pushing Windows 10 users to upgrade to newer PCs, especially with the end of support for Windows 10 approaching in 2025.
