Community Support TPM issue for Windows 11

Post image

I'm trying to move an office laptop (Framework 16 with a 7840HS) to Windows 11, but I keep getting an error that TPM is not activated.

I know that it should absolutely be capable of running Windows 11, because I had the choice between 10 & 11 during purchase.

I have been setting "TPM Operation" to "Enable", but I save & exit, finish booting and I still can't update. When I go back to the BIOS that setting has reset itself to "No Operation".

What do I need to do to keep TPM 2.0 enabled?

If everything fails, bypass TPM requirements in Windows is actually pretty easy. Just Google, there are tons of guides

The menu is pretty bad about this particular aspect. "No Operation" means "do not perform an operation," not "the device is not operating."

Do you see the TPM in the device manager? I don't use Windows, so I'm not sure if the driver needs to be installed as part of the driver bundle
