If you don’t know, TPM (Trusted Platform Module) is a secure cryptographic processor that helps you perform actions like generating, storing, and restricting the use of cryptographic keys. Some TPM chipsets also include physical security mechanisms to prevent malware from tampering with TPM’s security functions. Usually, the TPM chip will be soldered directly to the motherboard.
Therefore, to know if their PC can be upgraded to Windows 11, users need to determine whether the motherboard they are using supports TPM 2.0.
Some famous board manufacturers such as Biostar,starGigabyte, MSI, ASRock, etc. The list of product lines that support compatibility with Windows 11 has begun to be published.
