To bypass the requirements check (ex. when installing Windows on a virtual machine, purposely using less resources):

Manual

1. Go back to the first screen. ![image.png](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1663351875957/dwFlSOXU3.png align="center")

• Launch command line interface by pressing Shift + F10. Run regedit. ![image.png](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1663352189990/5g1_WiP2O.png align="center")

• Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup. RMB on that node to add new key LabConfig. ![image.png](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1663352412748/S-YV3AqBO.png align="center") ![image.png](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1663352496768/J3GvRaBbr.png align="center")

• RMB on the right panel and add new "DWORD (32-bit)". Call it BypassTPMCheck. Double click and change value to 1. Click "OK". ![image.png](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1663354143875/Wppj6BiSI.png align="center") ![image.png](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1663354264243/_orczt5uz.png align="center")
