Virtual Machine Bypass TPM 2.0

Install Windows 10 on a Hyper-V virtual machine and then upgrade to the latest Windows 11 system using Windows Update to bypass TPM 2.0, Secure Boot and UEFI restrictions.

In short:

This method makes it easier to test Windows 11 Insider Preview versions for early access to new features and changes to the latest Windows 11 system that we can't make on an older computer due to hardware limitations imposed by Microsoft.

This method is not a so-called Dual Boot system, but a Windows Hyper-V virtual machine, prepared on a pre-installed Windows system, ie a Windows 11 system that can be started in a virtual environment on an already installed system (e.g. Windows 10).

The operation consists of several steps:

1. – Enable Microsoft Hyper-V feature.
2. – Create virtual machine using Hyper-V.
3. – Install Windows 10 on the virtual machine.
4. – Connect to the Windows Insider program.
5. – Create or sign in to a Microsoft account.
6. – Upgrade to Windows 11.
