Apparently you can get around that with a registry hack that tells the installer the machine has it. Not that I’d want windows 11 anyway…
IIRC if you use Rufus to make your installer USB it has a preset for Win11 with no TPM. Again, not that you'd want to go out of your way to install it but doing it that way is pretty seamless.
Thanks! I wish I had this info for an old build.
Sidebar: Kind of silly how you and others are tripping over yourselves to include something against win11 while providing tech support. As if you'd be a pariah if you didn't include some disdain.
"Here's some win11 troubleshooting advice, not that I'd ever be caught using it! ;)"
Well I'm a sysadmin; it's in my nature to answer rogue tech questions :p.
I actually daily Win11 on my personal laptop. It's... fine, realistically. I really only say you wouldn't go out of your way to install it because if you have a machine that's working well under Win10, I don't see a compelling reason to upgrade.
