![]() To me, it just seems like "Windows 10.1", overall. Others say they are "so excited", others "it’s a monumental Windows release".And I cannot understand why. ![]() They published a document where it said TPM 1.2 was the "hard floor" and TPM 2.0 the "soft floor", but have since revised it and removed all-references to TPM 1.2."All that said I think this is getting way too much drama"I agree there! Most commentators on here seem obsessed now with Windows 11, and act like Windows 10 is now immediately dead and they cannot cope between now and when they get W11 installed. "Microsoft employees saying on Twitter and other places that you only really need TPM 1.2 for it to work but it will warn you … what is it then?"Officially, TPM 2.0 is the lowest. So if you have multiple issues, you can find out what they are all at once and then, hopefully, address them. This very useful tool will list out all of Windows 11’s hardware requirements and then show you whether your PC passes muster in each case. And the Microsoft tool, despite a few quick upgrades, is still borderline useless.Įnter WhyNotWin11. And that’s kind of the problem: In many cases, you may need to make more than one change to your PC to make it compatible say, by enabling TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot. Microsoft doesn’t have a real solution to the hardware compatibility issues beyond “just buy a new PC.” But it does offer a PC Health Check app that will give you a one-line answer if your PC is deemed incompatible with the Windows 11 upgrade. I still feel that this won’t be a problem for most so-called “normal” people, either because they purchased PCs from big-name companies and don’t need to worry about it or because they simply will never care about any Windows upgrade. ![]() I assume everyone is on board with the notion that Microsoft’s hardware requirements for Windows 11, especially its TPM 2.0 requirement, have landed poorly within the community. But a new third-party tool does a much better job than Microsoft at explaining why you can’t upgrade to Windows 11.
