Windows 11 will be available at the end of the year for everyone. To install it, you will need a TPM 1.2 or 2.0 chip, present on all PCs today. If it's old, your computer might not have it, but that's not inevitable.
Windows 11 was presented with great fanfare by Microsoft last week. If the Redmond firm has gladly unveiled the new features of its OS, it has remained evasive on many points. Lucky for us, she cleared them up after the fact. It's the case for minimum configuration.

Microsoft has given a minimum configuration for installing Windows 11. Among the requirements, the presence of a TPM chip (2.0 recommended). This dedicated security chip is present on all recent PCs, but your old machine might not have it. Theoretically, you will therefore not be able to install the operating system. As Windows Latest indicates, there is however two ways to get around the problem.
Windows 11 can be installed using two methods
The first is simple. When you launch the installation, a window will appear telling you that your computer cannot run Window 11. You must then modify the registry to tapant Shift+F10.
You must then launch regedit.exe and create a new entry « LabConfig » sous la mention HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMSetup. In LabConfig, you must then create two entries:
- BypassTPMCheck=dword:00000001
- BypassSecureBootCheck=dword:00000001
This will allow the installation to bypass the need for a TPM chip.
Windows Latest also describes another method this time using the ISO file. When it will be available, you will have to go to the installation folder and replace the appraiserres.dll file by the same, but this time from the ISO file of Windows 10. It will then be necessary to create a disk image using software like Rufus or Anyburn.
Either way, if you have a PC that isn't prehistoric, you should be able to run Windows 11 without worry. Otherwise, these two methods might help. The operating system should arrive in the coming months, since Microsoft is targeting the end of the year for its deployment. As a reminder, Windows 11 does not want to drastically change the Windows 10 experience, but still brings its share of new features, including a visual overhaul, or compatibility with Android applications.
