    The TPM2.0 and SecureBoot requirement should be limited to new OEM installs only.  Its absurd to push this added cost on to end-users who build their own systems.  Its an arbitrary requirement as many end users who build systems don't see the need to enable Bitlocker .  Please reconsider this position immediately.

    Also, I hope you decide to re-enable the ability to disable 'grouping' on the taskbar, the leaked build does not have this option and grouping hampers my productivity.  I have plenty of space on my taskbar for expansion and having to hover over an icon to then bring up a list of child windows for an app just slows me down when I am using the mouse.

    Thank you for considering my feedback.

    TPM requirement is 100% ridiculous! There is no reason why this would need to be enabled on desktop computers used in a home or small business!

    PC Health Check is saying I do not meet the minimum requirements, despite meeting them all. I have turned on TPM (which is version 2.0) and Secure Boot as well, so that's not the issue. I'm wondering if this is just a bug or if there are more unlisted requirements, it would be helpful if the error message gave specific info about what's not compatible
