Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

If you have Windows 10 installed on your computer, there is a chance that TMP (Trusted Platform Module) is pre-installed on your CPU. You need TPM to use BitLocker, encryption, and decryption features on the hard disc. In fact, Windows 8.1 also need TPM for BitLocker. If you wish to upgrade your computer to Windows 11, then the most important requirement is “TPM 2.0“. 

There are many ways by which you can know whether your system has TPM or not. Here we are going to discuss a couple of ways to see if your PC has TPM 2.0 for Windows 11.

How to Check If Your PC has TPM 2.0

Here we are going to discuss three ways to check if your system has TPM. You can check for TPM using – Windows Security, Device Manager, and TPM Management on local computer. Let us discuss them one by one.

Note:- If your PC has TPM 2.0 installed on your system. But if it is not enabled, then you can check our guide on how to enable TPM 2.0 on BIOS settings.

1. Check Using Windows Security

Windows Security is the default security app for the Windows operating system. Here are the steps to check TPM using the Windows Security app:

Step 1: On the search option, search for “Windows Security” and open it. Or else, click on the arrow icon ^ on the taskbar and click on the Windows security icon to open it.

Step 2: It will open the Windows Security app. Here click on the “Device Security” option.

Step 3: TPM 2.0 is activated on your computer if you receive a notification that states “Your security processor, called the trusted platform module (TPM), is providing additional encryption for your device” under “Security processor” of the “Device Security” window.

2. Check Using Device Manager

You can check it by using the device manager, here are the steps to do so:

Step 1: Right-click on the “Start” button, it will open a panel where you will find the “Device Manager” option simply click on it. Or else, you can also search for device manager on the search option.

Step 2: Now it will open the device manager window. Here you will find the list of all the devices that are installed on your pc. Here look for an option called “Display Adapters” and expand it.

Step 3: Now click on “Trusted Platform Module 2.0“, and it will open the trusted platform module 2.0 properties. Look for device status that says – “This device is working properly”. That means your PC has TPM 2.0.

3. Check Using TPM Management on Local Computer

You can also use the “TPM Management on Local Computer” interface to Check If Your PC has TPM enabled or not. Here are steps to do so:

Step 1: To open the “Run” window by pressing the Windows + R keys together. Then in the dialogue box, type tpm.msc and click on “OK“.

Step 2: This will open a “TPM Management on Local Computer” window. If you see “The TPM is ready for use” under the Status section. It means that the TPM 2.0 is enabled on your system. You can also see TPM manufacturer information.

You may also check if you have TPM by using your BIOS or UEFI, Command Prompt, and other methods. However, it is not as simple as the methods above. Also, use the Microsoft PC Health Check tool to see if your system will support Windows 11.

That’s it. This is how you can check if your PC has TPM or not. I hope this article was helpful to you. If you liked it don’t forget to share it with your friends.
