Specification Version says 1.2. Windows 11 needs TPM 2.0. Microsoft says some PCs with TPM 1.2 can be moved to 2.0; check with the PC maker. Source: Enable TPM 2.0 on your PC

If this does not work

tpm.msc says Compatible TPM cannot be found. Microsoft says the TPM may be switched off in the PC's UEFI firmware settings, where it can be called Intel PTT, AMD fTPM, AMD PSP fTPM or Security Device Support.

About this guide

Windows 11 needs a TPM 2.0 security chip, and some games and work apps check for it. Two built-in tools show whether your PC has one, and neither changes anything.

The TPM in our pictures is the Cloud PC's virtual TPM; on a normal PC the manufacturer is the chip maker.

Good to know

If Security processor is missing from Device security, or tpm.msc says no compatible TPM was found, the TPM may be switched off in the PC's firmware settings. The PC maker's help pages show where.

Seeing a security processor troubleshooting message? Security processor troubleshooting on the same details page lists what Windows found.

In short: Windows Security, Device security, Security processor details: Specification version 2.0. Or Run, tpm.msc: The TPM is ready for use.
