This method allows you to install Windows 11 on computers that do not have the TPM 2.0 chip

We already know the demanding specifications that we must meet if we want to upgrade to Windows 11. Many teams will be left out when they find that their computer does not have the TPM chip, a security processor that Microsoft requires along with the presence of Secure Boot. Two key elements that can however be dodged to upgrade as user Albacore has detailed on Twitter.

Windows 11 requires a computer that supports TPM 2.0 and has Secure Boot. However, it seems that with a series of steps, it is possible to bypass these requirements and install Windows 11 on computers that theoretically do not support it.

Windows 11 on all computers

With a Windows 11 Build already available to those who are part of the Windows Insider Program, just download the ISO and follow a series of stepson the computer to bypass the requirement for the TMP chip during the verification process-.

This is a section in the Windows registry called "LabConfig" that allows you to bypass the TPM 2.0 check, the limitation of 4 GB of RAM, and that of Secure Boot.

"

You have to keep in mind that for this process you have to touch the Windows Registry, so everything is at the risk assumed by each one . It is a process, this tutorial, that can cause performance and operation problems on the computer."

Steps to follow

Once we download the Windows 11 ISO and try to install it, we will see that the PC tells us that it cannot continue as it does not meet the requirements and therefore no can install and run Windows 11.

"

At that moment we must press the key combination Shift+F10 to open the Command Prompt and access the RegistryEditor writing the command regedit."

"

In the Registry Editor search for the path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMSetupand once found, click with the right mouse button or trackpad on Setup, then select the option New and PasswordWe will call the password LabConfig and press Enter"

"

Inside the new folder that we have just created we must add the DWORD values ​​by right clicking on DWORD Value (32 bits) and we create the value BypassTPMCheck with the value 1. We repeat these steps with the values ​​BypassRAMCheck andBypassSecureBootCheck"

"

At that point we can exit Registry Editor and Command Promptand again we try to install Windows 11. The incompatibility warning should no longer appear and in this way Windows 11 can be installed on computers that are not compatible."

However, we must not forget what was said before and that is that carrying out these steps can cause our equipment to have performance problems , security and operation with Windows 11.
