Why Your PC Cannot Run Windows 11
❌ Missing TPM 2.0 (Security Chip Not Detected)
❌ Unsupported CPU (Your Intel Core i5-3317U is Too Old)
Windows 11 Requires:
✔ TPM 2.0 (Security Chip)
✔ 8th Gen Intel or Newer CPU (Yours is 3rd Gen)
What You Can Do
Option 1: Keep Using Windows 10 (Best Choice for Most Users)
- ✅ Safe & Easy – No changes needed
- ✅ Updates Until 2025 – Microsoft still supports Windows 10
- ✅ All Your Apps Keep Working
Option 2: Check if TPM Can Be Enabled (For Some PCs)
- Restart PC & Enter BIOS (Press F2, F12, DEL, or ESC at startup)
- Find TPM/PTT Settings (Under Security or Advanced)
- Enable TPM 2.0 or Intel PTT
- Save & Restart
⚠ Even if TPM works, your CPU is still too old for Windows 11.
Option 3: Upgrade Hardware (Costly but Future-Proof)
🛠 Buy a New PC or Motherboard (With TPM 2.0 & New CPU)
💰 Cost: 300 − 300−1000+ (Depends on Model)
Option 4: Unofficial Workarounds (Not Recommended for Most Users)
🚫 Registry Hacks or Modified ISO Files (Risky & Unstable)
🚫 No Microsoft Support if Something Breaks
Best Advice for General Users
👉 Stay on Windows 10 (Safe & Works Fine Until 2025)
👉 Plan for a New PC Later (When Budget Allows)
