Making bootable Windows 11 installer. I have old Dell 7010 optiplex (Intel Core i5-3570 CPU @ 3.40GHz) with UEFI/ secureboot, but not TMP 2.0.

What happens to secureboot in bios or windows, if i tick option.?

Rufus option:

[ x ] remove requirement for secure boot and TMP 2.0


thanks for the replies

I forgot to mention that the CPU isn't supported either, Rufus doesn't have that option yet. The point is to do a clean installation. So using the windows 10 registry is not possible.

One possibility might have is to modify Windows 11 bootable media. But there don't seem to be any instructions for that anywhere.

Nothing. The option only removes the requirement checks done by the installer.

You're trying to Use Rufus to Bypass TPM and Secure Boot Requirements in Windows 11 installation.

You need to enable these three options :

  • Remove requirement for 4GB+ RAM, Secure Boot, and TPM 2.0
  • Remove requirement for an online Microsoft account
  • Disable data collection (Skip privacy questions)

With these requirements removed, the Windows 11 installer will not insist on them.

Rufus, or any third-party tool for that matter, isn't required to bypass the installer requirements; Rufus does makes it slightly more convenient (it auto-performs the steps listed under Windows, minus temp space modification), but this can be done while booted to the installer in WinPE or after the Install USB is created, but before rebooting to the installer:


WinPE

CLI:

  1. Boot Install USB → Open a terminal: Shift+F10
  2. ::# Disable TPM Req:
        Reg Add HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig /v BypassTPMCheck /t REG_DWORD /d 1
    

    ::# Disable SecureBoot Req: Reg Add HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig /v BypassSecureBootCheck /t REG_DWORD /d 1

  3. Continue through installer's GUI

GUI:

  1. Boot Install USB → Open a terminal: Shift+F10regeditEnter
  2. Navigate to: HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig
    1. Disable TPM Req:
      Right-click on LabConfigNewDWORD (32-bit) Value
      Value Name: BypassTPMCheck
      Value Data: 1
    2. Disable Secure Boot Req:
      Right-click on LabConfigNewDWORD (32-bit) Value
      Value Name: BypassSecureBootCheck
      Value Data: 1
  3. Continue through installer's GUI


Windows

Install USB:

  1. Open Admin terminal: WinKey+ROpen: powershellCtrl+Shift+OK
  2. # Create working directory:
      MkDir "C:\mount"
    

    Get correct image index (Windows Setup is usually #2):

    Dism /Get-ImageInfo /ImageFile:"<InstallUSB>:\sources\boot.wim"

    Mount WinPE Windows Setup WIM:

    Dism /Mount-Image /ImageFile:"<InstallUSB>:\sources\boot.wim" /Index:2 /MountDir:"C:\mount"

    Load WinPE SYSTEM hive:

    Reg Load HKLM\WinPE &quot;C:\mount\Windows\System32\config\SYSTEM&quot;
    
    

    Disable TPM Req:

    Reg Add HKLM\WinPE\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig /v BypassTPMCheck /t REG_DWORD /d 1
    
    

    Disable SecureBoot Req:

    Reg Add HKLM\WinPE\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig /v BypassSecureBootCheck /t REG_DWORD /d 1
    
    

    Unload Hive

    Reg Unload HKLM\WinPE
    
    

    Set WinPE default temp space to 512MB:

    Dism /Set-ScratchSpace:512 /Image:"C:\mount"

    Unmount:

    Dism /Unmount-Image /MountDir:"C:\mount" /Commit

    Cleanup:

    RmDir /s /q "C:\mount"

  3. Boot Install USB
