If you plan to install Insider Preview builds or run the final version of Windows 11 on a virtual machine using VMware Workstation, the application includes TPM and Secure Boot options. Secure Boot is a firmware technology that protects the boot process so that malware (such as rootkits) cannot attack the trusted OS during startup. Although during the development process, Microsoft is not enforcing the security requirements to install Windows 11, eventually, you won’t be able to install the OS on a VMware Workstation virtual machine due to the lack of the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) and Secure Boot.Ī TPM is a chip that offers cryptographic functions, such as generating and storing encryption keys to enable features like Windows Hello, BitLocker, and others.
