What is the Windows 11 registry bypass
The registry bypass is a nominal change in your registry that helps disable TPM 2.0 check on your system when installing Windows 11. TPM or Trusted Platform Module is a secure chip on your motherboard that stores important data like your Windows Hello Sign-in information, passwords, encryption keys, and a lot more. These checks and requirements for TPM 2.0 can be bypassed by using the registry hack for Windows 11.
