It is found that all Intel Mac and Windows 11 are not working. But is there a solution?

The minimum system requirements for Windows 11 were announced a few days ago, but at the time of writing, I found that they could not be installed on all Mac equipped with Intel chips.

According to the newly released information from MS, the minimum requirements for a system that can install Windows 11 are as follows:

Among them, the so-called TPM refers to devices or chips with various functions related to security. It also involves encryption keys and DRM management, similar to security sterilizers on iPhone and Mac.

Some processors on Mac support TPM 2.0, but motherboards do not support TPM 2.0. Therefore, Windows 11 cannot be installed even if other hardware requirements are met because there is no TPM 2.0. You can also confirm this by running the PC normality check Application provided by MS (available from "downloading applications" on this page).

The Mac list is as follows: "Windows 11 cannot be run because there is no TPM 2.0 and other requirements are met" (TPM 2.0 at the CPU level is supported).

In theory, these Mac can be enabled and TPM2.0,Windows11 will run as long as the motherboard firmware is updated. But Apple is taking two years to move from Intel Mac to its own Mac-powered Apple Silicon, which is also considered impossible.

However, according to AppleInsider in the United States, if you create a custom ISO file, you can avoid the limitations of TPM2.0. Although the ISO file for Windows 11 was leaked before MS was officially released, the purpose of manually editing it is to install Mac if it meets the above minimum requirements.

What you need is Mac,Windows 10 ISO and Windows 11 ISO and any ISO file creation application to meet the minimum system requirements of Windows 11. The steps to create a custom ISO file and install it into Intel Mac are as follows:

Create a Windows 11 ISO file that avoids TPM2.0 requirements

Install Windows 11 from a custom ISO file in Boot Camp

Following the steps above, the installer for Windows 11 should run through Boot Camp.

However, there is no guarantee that future updates may cause installation disruptions, or that MS may step up TPM2.0 checks before the official release. Furthermore, leaked ISO files should not be obtained, and it may be wise to keep "this possibility" in the corner of the mind.
