Reply to comment by JustHanginInThere in Windows 10 users are being offered a Windows 11 upgrade despite not meeting the requirements by GOR098

Then you probably have TPM but it's turned off in BIOS, and the new checker figured it out

I disabled the tpm in bios on purpose because i dont see any benifit to upgrade to w11.

Yup. Don't want any accidental "upgrades".

This is almost always why people "don't meet the requirements." But to be fair, I wouldn't expect the average user to look into it or ever enter their BIOS

Mine was from 2019 and top line and barely missed the cutoff on having a TPM. It sucks because the rig is still viable

Quite a few mobos of that era supported tpm, just didn't install one. It may be as simple as buying, installing on the right pins, and enabling in bios.
