To enable TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot, follow these general steps. Note that exact instructions can vary depending on your motherboard manufacturer:
1. Enter BIOS/UEFI:
- Restart your computer and press the BIOS/UEFI key (often
Delete, F2, or Esc) during boot.
2. Enable TPM 2.0:
- In BIOS/UEFI, navigate to the Security or Advanced tab.
- Locate TPM or PTT (Platform Trust Technology) and enable it.
- Save changes and exit BIOS/UEFI.
3. Enable Secure Boot:
- Re-enter BIOS/UEFI.
- Go to the Boot tab.
- Set Secure Boot to Enabled.
- If prompted, select or configure a secure boot key/certificate.
- Save changes and exit BIOS/UEFI.
4. Verify Changes in Windows:
- Boot into Windows.
- Press Win + R, type tpm.msc, and press Enter. Verify that TPM is enabled.
- Press Win + I to open Settings, then go to Update & Security > Device Security > Security processor details to check the status.
Important: If your system uses Legacy BIOS (MBR), enabling Secure Boot might render Windows unbootable. Ensure your system uses UEFI mode (GPT).
For detailed instructions specific to your hardware, refer to the motherboard manual or the manufacturer's website.
