Most laptops and desktops have the TPM (Trusted Platform Modules) chip integrated into the motherboard and have enabled it by default. If it’s not enabled, you will see an error message when you run the PC health check tool. Alternatively, you can check if TPM is running or not by following the steps below:

1. Open Start and search for Run utility or press the shortcut key – Windows+R 

2. Type tpm.msc in the text box and press Enter. 

3. Check the TPM status and specification version.

If you don’t see the status as “The TPM is ready for use”, it’s possible that TPM was disabled by default in the BIOS.

• How to Enable TPM 2.0 for Windows 11

1. Go to Start and open Settings.

2. Click on Update and Security.

3. On the sidebar, click on Recovery.

4. Click on Restart Now under the Advanced Startup section.

5. Click on Troubleshoot and then click on Advanced options.
