I'm getting this error when trying to install windows 11 via VMWare on my M1 iMac:
this pc doesn't meet windows 11 requirements
How do I resolve this issue?
iMac 24″, macOS 15.1
How do I check for that? I've gone through all the settings on VMWare and haven't found anything to change some of the settings that others mentioned about this (UEFI, secure boot, etc.). Feels like I should just buy Parallels instead :(
So, again, I use Parallels and haven't been a big VMWare user for a while - so I can't tell you exactly how VMWare would lay out their GUI...
But wherever the hardware configuration settings are done (where you decide how many CPUs, RAM, etc are allocated to the VM, configure the virtual HDD size, etc) you should be able to see - or add - and configure a TPM Chip (they will likely call it a Trusted Platform Module - the generic term - rather than give a specific kind like T2 which is Apple proprietary).
TPM needs to exist and will probably store the TPM key(s) in your Keychain.
if it was me the I would try a newer version of vmware and or asking in their forums
the error is that windows view the virtual machine platform that the wmware app as under it's requirements
Thanks. I'll try their support community as well.
I did this with the latest version of VMWare that I could find from their website so it's just odd.
I use Parallels, not VMWare, but...does your VM configuration have a virtualized T2 chip?
Ok I found it. Managed to get the TPM working so it's all good now. Thanks for the help.
