    Ok so if you built a computer in like 2019 or 2020 it’s only 4-5 years old. This was before windows 11 came out. 4-5 years is not that old for a computer, especially if you built a good one.

      This is what happened to me, a really high end PC built in 2018 and I couldn’t even upgrade because of the TPM stuff! Decided to try out Zorin and have been pleasantly surprised.

        9 times out of 10 you can turn TPM on on these machines, and even then, i’m told “Can’t upgrade to Windows 11.”
