Yeah, that did the trick for me too. One extra tip: after you enable them, you might need to fully shut down and restart, not just reboot, for Windows Update to recognize the change.

Agreed, a full shutdown is key. Also, double-check if your motherboard needs a BIOS update to properly unlock those settings.

Yeah, and if you're still stuck, try clearing your TPM from within Windows security settings—sometimes that helps the system recognize it.

Agreed. Also, double-check if you have any pending BIOS updates from your manufacturer's support site, as that can sometimes unlock those settings.

This happened to me with an older laptop. I had to install a BIOS update from the manufacturer's website before I could even access the TPM setting.

This. Yeah, and sometimes you need to set a supervisor password in the BIOS first to unlock those security settings.

Agreed, that password step trips a lot of people up. Also, double-check if there's a separate "fTPM" or "AMD PSP" setting you need to enable for AMD systems.

Agreed. This happened to me on my older laptop. I had to update the BIOS itself from the manufacturer's website before those security options even became available to turn on.

Agreed. Yeah, and sometimes you also need to enable a separate "PTT" or "fTPM" setting before the main TPM option will work. Let me know if that works.
