This tutorial will show you how to run the TPM Troubleshooter in Windows 11.

Windows 11 requires a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.0 or higher.

Trusted Platform Module (TPM) technology is designed to provide hardware-based, security-related functions. A TPM chip is a secure crypto-processor that is designed to carry out cryptographic operations. The chip includes multiple physical security mechanisms to make it tamper resistant, and malicious software is unable to tamper with the security functions of the TPM.

If your trusted platform module (TPM) isn't working properly you may see an error message and need to troubleshoot it.

Starting with Windows 11 build 25905 (Canary), Microsoft has added a TPM Troubleshooter to help find and fix problems with your TPM.

1 Open Windows Security.

  • Always use functionality in the operating system (such as TPM.msc) to the clear the TPM. Don't clear the TPM directly from UEFI
