Has Microsoft changed its TPM requirements for Windows 11?
If not, then there is no override.
- naikrovek 4y agoset the registry key and the requirement goes away. the tpm doesn't hide things from you, it hides things from attackers. if you don't want your disk encrypted, then decrypt it. you can do that. it's very easy.
- car_analogy 4y agoAnd now you're straight up lying. The whole purpose of the TPM is to hide cryptographic keys from anyone with physical access, including the owner. There is no override an owner can perform (via, say, a password set on first boot, that may be used to dump all the keys from the TPM into RAM). It may not by itself force you to encrypt your disk, but it does enable all the abuses listed in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_Computing#Criticism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_Computing#Criticism, that I won't waste summarizing, as it's becoming increasingly obvious you're arguing in bad faith.
- nobodyandproud 4y agoThe requirement for TPM 2.0 goes away, but Windows 11 still requires TPM 1.2 even with said registry key. In short, there is no opting out barring an alternative OS.

- nobodyandproud 4y ago> Has Microsoft changed its TPM requirements for Windows 11? > If not, then there is no override. So going back to my question: The answer is a resounding no. It’s hard to believe you’re participating in good faith at this point.
