Please provide more information about your PC hardware so I can provide you with the best solution..

Click your Start Button, then just type msinfo and press Enter, please provide a screenshot of the resulting System Information window.

    Windows 11 requires TPM 2.0. If the PC does not meet the hardware requirements, it cannot be upgraded to Windows 11.

    What to do:

    1. Check whether TPM is present but disabled:
      • Open Windows Security.
      • Select Device security.
      • Look for Security processor.
      • If it appears, open Security processor details and check Specification version. Windows 11 requires 2.0.
    2. If there is no Security processor section, the PC might have TPM turned off in firmware. Enable it in BIOS/UEFI if the motherboard supports firmware TPM.
    3. Run the PC Health Check app to confirm whether the device is eligible for Windows 11.
    4. If the PC truly does not support TPM 2.0, the supported path is to stay on Windows 10 or move to a new PC that meets Windows 11 requirements.

    Important:

    • Windows 11 also requires the device to meet the other minimum hardware requirements.
    • Installing Windows 11 on hardware that does not meet the requirements is not a supported upgrade path in the provided guidance.
