    OK, so I just went and enabled TPM in the Bios, and now it says I meet the requirements.  So, is the requirement for TPM support mandatory for Windows 11 RTM?  There are a lot of machines out there that do not have TPM support..

    Why is my Surface Studio 2 showing up as not meeting the minimum hardware requirements for Windows 11?
    I have TPM v2 enabled, running DirectX 12, with 32GB RAM and 2T hard drive...

    After today's announcement of Windows 11, I found that my PC does not meet the requirement, even if it matches what is written and more.

    When application quickly say it doesn't meet the required hardware, it would be good to know in exactly which category it failed.

    This especially for us who build our own computers, does not make sense that we have to buy a whole new PC, if it is only hard-drive, or amount of RAM, there need to be upgraded.

    Will there be such a feature soon, so I can upgrade what is needed?

    Cheers

    Chris
