Windows 11 TPM Requirement? Bypass it in 5 Minutes

[ValenOne]

Microsoft spotted using unsupported CPU during its Windows 11 Insider Webcast program - Neowin

This happened when the discussion had turned towards the Task Manager and during this, Claton Hendricks, who is a Program Manager at Microsoft, was seen sporting an Core i7-7660U processor, which is not on Microsoft's official list of supported CPUs.

Which is yet another example of how much monkey poo microsoft's claims and artificial limitations are.

Hi,
Ms released a cpu ignore workaround
Whether it has a tpm module or bios updates well all I can say is at least they didn't have a bsod live broad cast
Although they would have incompatible hardware excuse this time

I think they may have something in the pipeline that will require those limitations in the future. Whether they're not convinced their plans will succeed or they didn't want to risk having too small a user base initially, they made those restrictions soft, for the time being.
But that's just me guessing. Irl, today, the restrictions seem completely arbitrary.

Also, making early adopters install from scratch if they want the latest security features was nice touch

If microsoft were wise, they would realized they are shooting themselves in the foot with the TPM/Secureboot/Hardware/Account limitation nonsense. These are the biggest reasons adoption has been VERY lackluster. The improvements are excellent, but the dumbass restrictions are unacceptable.

The better choice would be to make them a soft option and not force them on people. We'll see if the person(s) who made that decision continue with their head up their bum(s)..

Hi,
Best way to show ms is not to use 11.

Even on compliant hardware

I don't believe Win11 is a bad OS, all things considered.
That said, even though my PC meets the requirements, I haven't upgraded. Not to stick it to Microsoft, but because I much prefer being able to move the taskbar sideways. Monitors are wide, vertical space is at a premium, you know...

Edit: For a bit of context, I was on 7 since it was in beta, I skipped 8 and 8.1 and hopped onto 10 shortly after release. (I've been with Windows for longer than that.)

Bypass TPM:

Paste the script below into a text document and save as:
autounattend.xml/ all docs.
Place this file in the root of the installer:

Notes about this answer file:

The purpose of this answer file is to simply bypass the Windows 11 system requirement checks.

It includes a Windows 10 / 11 Pro key.

It includes settings to bypass Windows 11 system requirements.

This answer file can be used with both Windows 10 and 11. The settings to bypass Windows 11
system requirement checks will have no effect on Windows 10.

You choose the language where to install, name or password and that's it. Install Windows 11 on any PC or laptop.
Both upgrade and clean install.

You dont even need to do this anymore. Rufus has a built in bypass along with automatic local account creation.

Also, you left your product key in the code.

 

[RuLich]

And is a clean installation possible using Rufus?!

This is not criminal, these are Generic product keys:

Windows 10 Home Single Language: 7HNRX-D7KGG-3K4RQ-4WPJ4-YTDFH
Windows 10 Home: TX9XD-98N7V-6WMQ6-BX7FG-H8Q99
Windows 10 Pro: VK7JG-NPHTM-C97JM-9MPGT-3V66T

Must be activated after installation!

Yes, because I did it.

Was just putting it out there about the product key. Didnt know if it was intended or not.

You're posting a solution to a thread that's been here since 11's launch, which already has these fixes


And yes, rufus does all this automatically
