guys, let's calm down. stop throwing tantrums at each other nobody reinvented tap water. it's been available since .132 but was not yet documented outside of enterprise sector. with it gaining visibility after being included in "some script", microsoft just had to acknowledge it officially but you've missed the important part: it only works if your machine already supports TPM 1.2 so keep using "some script" on your potatoes / VMs without any TPM support! also give this a read
So why bother enforcing requirements, Microsoft just remove it altogether and stop being coporate diks !
From what I was told, the approved Windows 11 TPM removal will probably be for (older) ATM machines for example, keeping in mind a lot still running Windows XP / Windows 7, on very old Mainboards by Diebold/Wincor/Nixdorf, with very cost extensive beyond-extended support/updates, payed by the banks. I wasnt told how the removal would be done, as its "only" 4 years since Windows 10 slowly found its way to ATMs and Windows 11 probably having a looooong way to finally reach ATMs.
Since when do desktop boards come with TPM anyway? Unless its a new standard (I hadn't built a PC since 2016) then I imagine most people do not and will not have a TPM chip inside their PC especially if its not new, so this whole requirement makes little sense to me...
