    I have an Ivy Bridge laptop that handles 11 LTSC 24H2 fine, but the laptop doesn't have TPM 2.0.

    Is there an Insider channel that can be used with official updates?

    Win 11 Boot And Upgrade FiX KiT (v6.1f2 Released!!!)
    This tool will fix your iso to be able to install Win 11 on unsupported systems.

    ps, IoT Enterprise 2024 LTSC and IoT Enterprise non LTSCdon't enforce the new requirements at all.

    Don't know what any insider channel could do for you with LTSC.

    ---------------

    The mentioned/linked tool will enable you to fix ALL Win 11 ISOs and in the Second post of the tool thread you can find the info about enabling WU to get insider preview feature upgrade builds installed.

    Simple Hotfixes don't check for the requirements.

    Thanks! I was looking more for a channel or edition I could choose from the Preview ISO page and just install it and forget it :p (LTSC 24H2's fine but something newer and official might be cool)

    Do other Insider editions (Enterprise, Server 2025+, etc) have the TPM requirement?

    Only IoTEnterprise / IoTEnterpriseS and the Servers skip checking the requirements. No idea about the ServerRDSH SKU.

    These are the 2 SKUs that don't enforce the win 11 system requirements:
    Insider channels are not special anymore, all have the same enforcements as non insiders.

    My tool enables ALL SKUs to be able to install on unsupported hardware.
