I'm mystified by this; perhaps you've seen a story about Thailand ?

I guess I was under that impression due to some one of those silly holiday movie...
In fact I have been to Thailand once and didn't see anything like that!
I went Ayathusa though.. and then saw the replica in Overwatch, yeah!

Hi Mate,
At first read, my weak eyes saw 'Ayahuasca' and then interpreted 'Overwatch' to be a movie about some air-headed new-age seekers in Columbia drinking a hallucinogen, and barfing, to shamanic drumbeats
Then, i got focused, and realized you must have meant 'Ayutthaya' ...
i'm still lost in the woods about what 'Overwatch' is 
i'm afraid these kinds of missing references in my mappa mundi are an artifact of how i have (by choice) "dropped out" of many aspects of contemporary western culture for over 15 years. Note: in my little saga, "turn on" did not follow "drop out, tune in" 
Or, maybe, my brain-fog is thicker thanks to trying to serialize a DataTable with a circular reference using the .NET BinarySerializer ?

Haha.. you spotted Ayathusa, which is good enough!
Overwatch is (one of my favorite) video game by Blizzard which is set in a near future Earth. And it has multiple map from places on earth. One such map is in Ayathusa! And it has many Thai statue from that place!
It's multiplayer, player versus player, though.. And I struggle, at 50.. when put up against all those salty arrogant aggressive young kid, hahah!
They have some cool short animation though, every now and then, to build excitement

... but won't tell you why you can't run it.
But this (in theory) does: Want to know why your PC can't upgrade to Windows 11? Theres an app for that | TechRadar[^]
Interestingly, my Surface Go 2 the tool says "no way José", but this app says it's all fine - so the chances are the MS tool needs some ... um ... tweaking.
My desktop on the other hand ...
Red for legacy boot method, Partition type not GPT, Secure Boot disabled, TMP missing or not detected.
Amber for the CPU compatibility.

I checked this again and it seems my processor is not on the acceptable list.

Time to have a chat with your BIOS re booting. It may also have disabled hardware or firmware TPM.
Requiring GPT partitioning is interesting...

LOL,
I tried the Windows tool and it cannot check my work PC because Windows is handled/managed by my organisation.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure my couple of years old work PC (dell) does not have the TPM chip.

It probably does, it just doesn't want to admit it!

I have a 3 year (almost) old Dell XPS desktop and it is fully compatible with 11. So it must have a TPM chip. Yours may have it too?

nope.

I just ran the Windows 11 PC Check program on my own Dell XPS desktop and it passed without any issues. I wonder if it will work on my Dell Precision laptop with a Xeon chipset...

I checked my BIOS and it says TPM is available and enabled. Running Win 10 64 bit on a HP Pavilion laptop, bought as recently as Aug 2020.
But when I run cmd as an admin and launch tpm.msc, it says:
Compatible Trusted Platform Module (TPM) cannot be found on this computer. Verify that this computer has a 1.2 TPM or later and it is turned on in the BIOS.
Anybody got a clue as to what might be wrong?
Cheers,
Vikram.

The tool will only run correctly on Win7 . . . wherein it tells you not to be a dolt and upgrade at all.

Thanks,
it confirms what I suspected with my CrapBookPro (and presumably @chris-maunder 's latop as well). TPM missing/disabled. IIRC Apple uses its own crypto chip for macos, which makes me wonder if they've bothered to emulate TPM or provide an option to enable the chipset's soft TPM or just decided they couldn't be ![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) ing bothered to do more than the bare minimum for bootcamp support. The wretched power management on their hardware in windows makes me fear the latter.

The MSI tool quickly let me know that my processor is not supported. I took my chances and ran the other tool which showed all green except the processor. (amber with a question mark?)
This is a 3 y/o Lenovo desktop with an AMD A12-9800 Radeon R7. This is the first time ever that a processor is incompatible with an MS upgrade. Hopefully you are correct in that the MSI tool is buggy/incomplete. 
Personally, I'm fine with Win10, and was even better with Win7. I only need it to install on a test system so I can certify our desktop apps.

When it first came out, I just booted the ISO from a Hyper-V Gen1 VM without giving any second thought. The host doesn't have any of that crap enabled either. Seems to work fine.
I haven't tried to install it on the bare metal, but then, I do everything in VMs nowadays. My primary host OS is still 2012 R2.
|
|
|
|
|
According to what I have read, Hyper-V emulates TPM for VMs running under it. Your experience strongly suggests that it can do this even if the host doesn't have the hardware and/or doesn't have it enabled.
|
|
|
|
|
Gen-2 Hyper-V VMs offer a lot more options when it comes to these settings, so I'm of the opposite mind - older VMs don't have any of these options. Maybe these extra checks simply aren't present in that leaked build.
