The reports published today with details from Microsoft spokespeople were split on whether TPM will be needed to run Windows 11 on unsupported PCs, as noted above. Remember, one of the key issues surrounding Windows 11’s hardware requirements was the need for a Trusted Platform Module (TPM), and what version of the TPM that required. But it’s still unclear whether an “unsupported” Windows 11 PC requires a minimum hardware specification and what that hardware requirement actually is. ![]() PC Health Check is backįormally, it appears that Windows 11 still includes a list of minimum hardware specifications. PCWorld asked Microsoft representatives for comment, and we’ll update this post when we receive a reply. To be clear, Microsoft’s blog post did not publicly state that users would be able to download and install Windows 11 on unsupported hardware. “We have concluded that the compatible 64-bit processors selected, 4GB of memory, 64GB of storage, UEFI secure boot, graphics requirements and TPM 2.0 are the right minimum system requirements to deliver on the principles we established to best support you,” a blog authored by “the Windows Team” said Friday.
