How to Bypass windows 11 compatibility check for CPU and TPM 2.0
When I was trying to upgrade my computer from Windows 10 to Windows 11 recently, it says my device does not meet system requirements. The error message indicates:
Here is why:
The processor isn't supported for this version of Windows.
The PC must support TPM 2.0.
I am so confused as the PC still works quite smoothly with Windows 10 as it has 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD. Is there any way to bypass Windows 11 compatibility check so I can run Windows 11.
Windows 11 requires 8th Gen Intel CPU and TPM 2.0. If your computer does not meet these hardware requirements, then here is a simple way to bypass the check.

When upgrading an older PC to Windows 11, the installation may stop because the device does not meet requirements like TPM or CPU support. Some users search for ways to bypass windows 11 compatibility check.
PowerShell is a built-in Windows tool that can be used to apply system changes and prepare the upgrade process.
Run PowerShell as Administrator:
New-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup" -Name "AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU" -PropertyType DWORD -Value 1 -Force
After applying the setting, restart the Windows 11 setup. For users trying to bypass windows 11 compatibility check, PowerShell provides a quick way to adjust this option.
