    My PC health check says that my PC meets the Windows 11 requirements, so why have I received an e-mail saying that it doesn't? How can Microsoft know whether or not my PC meets minimum requirements? How do I move back into the Beta Channel?

    I get this message also when doing the check-up but everything there seems to be OK. I also made sure that TPM is enabled, so what else could be missing? Also have an Nvidia GTX950.

    Thanks for the PTT suggestion.  Ran a search for "Intel PTT" and a page opened up explaining TPM and even displayed a MB like mine from ASUS !

    Thanks again !

    Terrific Job !

    Thanks for the tips to update /fix.  

    PC builders will likely have a 'list' of  methods depending on Motherboards installed.

    Will be good to know what MB are 'capable ' vs 'not capable'  .

    The test does not 'discover ' if yo have a TPM socket on you MB or capability.  So, more homework for builders.

    The 'processor ' issue is troubling due to  some processors having more cores and 'muscle' than the lowest common denominator here. Would like Intel to step up and explain.  A lot of money for an Intel processor to suddenly become incompatible.  How much were those  6800  / 8 core chips again ?

    It is probably the TPM, because Macs have no motherboard TPM.
