This short to-the-point video will show you how to check if your Windows desktop computer or laptop has TPM 2.0 in order to be able to upgrade to Windows 11 as required by Microsoft.

Trusted Platform Module (TPM) technology is designed to provide hardware-based, security-related functions. A TPM chip is a secure crypto-processor that is designed to carry out cryptographic operations. The chip includes multiple physical security mechanisms to make it tamper resistant, and malicious software is unable to tamper with the security functions of the TPM.

These are the basic requirements for installing Windows 11 on a PC.

If you are unsure whether your PC meets these requirements, you can check with your PC Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or, if your device is already running Windows 10, you can use the PC Health Check app to assess compatibility.
