You could also try using Microsoft's official "WhyNotWin11" tool, it often gives a clearer breakdown of what's missing. Another option is to check if there's a BIOS update from your laptop manufacturer that might enable TPM.

Yeah, that's solid advice. Also, if your laptop is older, sometimes the TPM setting is just disabled by default in the BIOS, so it's worth double-checking in there.

+1 You could also try using the Microsoft Media Creation Tool to do a clean install, which sometimes bypasses the upgrade checker.

Agreed. Yeah, agreed. One extra tip: double-check that TPM is actually enabled in your BIOS, as it's often off by default.
