Can the HP Pavilion 23-h027c be upgraded to support TOM 2.0 ? This is a All IN ONE PC.

@pdrodliz1 -- is this your computer: HP Pavilion 23-h027c TouchSmart All-in-One Desktop PC Product Specifications | HP® Customer Support

It was released to the public on 10-Jan-2014 -- making the architecture nearly 8 years old.

It was shipped with  Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit). Have you upgraded to Windows 10?

You can continue to use Windows 8.1 until mid-2023. Microsoft will support it until then.

You can use Windows 10 until October-2025. Microsoft will support it until then.

Do you still have the original disk-drive inside the computer? By 2023 (or 2025) it will be about 10 years old. I would proactively replace it, very soon, because it is already 7 years old, to prevent a failure that will cause the loss of access to all your personal files.

Hi, @pdrodliz1 

Your PC cannot be upgraded to support TPM 2.0.

If you want to try out W11 on your PC, it is relatively easy to do...

I would make a system image of your current W10 installation prior to updating to W11, so you can easily reinstall W10 in the future.  I used the free Macrium Reflect software to do that, under the Backup at Home section. 

Along with the system image, make sure you create the bootable DVD or USB rescue drive you boot from to access the system image stored on your portable hard drive.

Macrium Software | Reflect Free Edition

First make this registry change...

Then download the Windows 11 ISO file (3rd option), not the W11 installation assistant.

Download Windows 11 (microsoft.com)

Then open the file with Windows explorer, and click on the setup application.

To do that, right click on the ISO file and select 'Open With' and select Windows Explorer.

See the screenshot...this is what you will see when you open the file with Windows Explorer.

After you double click to run the setup application, you will get this window, and you can now upgrade to W11.

You just have to accept the agreement that comes up during the upgrade process about your PC not meeting the requirements, etc., etc..

My unsupported W11 PC's got all of the W11 updates. 

I have upgraded 5 of them to W11 and they seem to run a little better on W11 than they did on W10.

However, I don't know how long they will continue to get all of the updates, or what will happen when the new build of W11 comes out next year in October.
