Following these steps fixed my issue as well.

Just to clarify, are you checking for a setting called "AMD fTPM" or "Platform Trust Technology" in your BIOS instead?

This. You could also try updating your motherboard BIOS to the latest version, as that sometimes adds the needed TPM support. Hope that helps.

Same here. I had the same problem with an older AMD system. In my case, the motherboard just didn't have a TPM module at all, so I had to use a workaround to install. Good luck!

You could also try using the Windows 11 Installation Assistant and bypass the checks with a registry edit. Another option is creating an install USB with a script that removes the TPM requirement.

Yeah, that registry edit trick can work. Just be sure to back up your data first since bypassing checks isn't officially supported. Let me know if that works.

+1 Ah, got it, that AMD chip is from before they built in the fTPM, so that trick might be your only shot.

Yeah, that's the issue—have you tried the registry edit workaround to bypass the TPM check?

This. Before trying that, can you confirm if your motherboard actually has a TPM header to add a physical module? Hope that helps.
