I Have a issue my server has windows 11 installed on it it's a Z420 with hardware that's not Windows 11 compliant it's currently on 21H2 at some point it stopped updating and I think I found the culprit I switched it to use Beta builds and it actually pulled a update but upon it installing it it flagged the "this PC doesn't currently meet Windows 11 system requirements due to Tpm 2.0 I know the z420 probably has TPM 1.2 and it's possible to flash it but it's a remote server several counties away and I can't be there in person I just want windows to update is there a way to bypass the requirement further than doing the registry fix?

Even if you find a way to bypass the requirements, Microsoft will just implement additional checks / blocks in the future. I found this out the hard way when I was wondering why the family's Dell Optiplex 7400 All In One computer wouldn't update from Win11 23H2 to 24H2 despite being a 12th gen Intel system with TPM2.0 - turns out my dumb ass had accidentally disabled TPM2.0 in the BIOS after the initial installation, which prevented future major versionupdates from installing.

Turned TPM2.0 back on via the BIOS and bam! Win11 24H2 installed no problem. So yeah, basically, I do not recommend nor support running Operating Systems on hardware that isn't supported.
