One of the system requirements for Windows 11 is the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.0, which may be disabled on your system. Your system will only be compatible to run Windows 11 when the TPM is enabled. Here’s what you need to know to enable TPM 2.0 in the BIOS on HP PCs and laptops, whether you have an HP Envy, HP Pavilion, or another laptop series.
How to Enable TPM 2.0 in BIOS in HP Envy and Pavilion Laptops
TPM 2.0 is a security feature that comes with modern desktops and notebooks. It is a microchip that is present in the motherboard and has now become a system requirement for Windows 11. TPM encrypts all passwords and sensitive information on your system and provides secure storage for this kind of information.
If the TPM detects malware, it will run a process that quarantines your system until it removes the malware and makes your system secure again. TPM was introduced in 2009 for mainstream computers and laptops and no system runs without it anymore. So unless your system is over a decade old, it will definitely have the TPM 2.0 microchip.
