I made a separate partition for boot camp Windows, and installed the Windows 10 Pro for workstation. Everything was fine. However, after purchasing the parallels desktop and open the boot camp windows from parallel, I started to get the notification about upgrading to Windows 11. I want to upgrade to win11, because I think the Mac Pro is strong enough, but there is a step where the parallel tells me to shut down the windows from virtual machine mode and boot from the boot camp, but as soon as I did that, the update told me the TPM2.0 is not supported and win11 cannot be installed.

I tried the regedit method, didn't help. I wonder if anyone has successfully installed the win11 on their mac, and how?

Thanks,
Henry
 
Microsoft has updated the requirements to include the Xeon-W, but I assume a later beta build will be required that includes this change.

Thanks for the information. But I think as long as TPM 2.0 is required, it is still difficult to let the intel-mac install the boot camp windows.

By the way, I have successfully installed a virtual windows 10 and upgraded to win11 withouth any difficulty. See the attached screen print (bottom one) as a proof.

some form of TPM probably isn't gong away.

The escape of doing an ISO install looks to keep TPM 1.2 .

Virtual machines can provide a virtual TPM along with virtual UEFI and other low level components. But that will drive a fork between sharing native boot and virtual boot of Windows 11. They won't be the same.
