What is a TPM, and does it come with the win 11 package, or must it be obrained elsewhere?
It is a piece of hardware that either comes with your motherboard
if it is new enough, or you have to add (if it has a header to
allow adding) or you can't get at all without buying a new computer.
Apparently all the add-in modules for motherboards which were
around $15 before Microsoft announced the requirement are all
around $150 now on ebay and out of stock everywhere else :-).
I'm glad I don't need Windows for anything! If the upgrade turns out to be free, I'll put it on my almost new machine, IF it has the TPM. (How would I know?_ ==doug
Anything made in the last few years should have one. If you're running
Linux, you can check with "ls /dev/tpm*" or "journalctl | grep -i tpm".
