VMware Fusion/Workstation, This PC can't run Windows 11

-

You may encounter this screen when trying to install Official Release Windows 11 on VMware workstation or VMware Fusion. This message: 

"The PC doesn't meet the minimum system requirements to install this version of Windows."


If you head over to the system requirements for Windows 11, you will notice on significant item that caught my eye. It needs TPM.


Lucky for VMware Workstation and Fusion, both has the ability to add a virtual TPM. But before you can add that you need to turn on Encryption and set a password for that. After that, Add Device... and choose Trusted Platform Module.



Once that is done your can just power up and install away.

This is definitely beneficial for many especially those who are keen to persue the advanced level exam but having difficult to afford the exam fee which was much higher. 2. A mandatory course is no longer needed as an exam requirement. This will help many professionals who are experienced to get certified without having to go through boring course and spend to drag through the requirement.  Will this then bring down the certification value since course was required to ensure certified professional walk the talk as what they hold in credential? Answer to point 2, for people who are new and managed to pass the exam and get certified by other means, it can be identified easily.
