Is there a tool or a command set we can use to view the PK/KEK keys that are installed in the TPM? Or, can HP assist in a printed document that would show what the assembly division placed in the TPM for third-party installers? Want to install newer virtualbox vm software, and a copy of linux (not sure yet which distro). I am aware of the hyper-v and security requirements for Windows 11 Home, and I am not real keen on turning off security in Windows 11 to load a vm service. All the documents released so far keep referring back to the manufacturer for this functionality, then to the OS vendor for their permission(s).
Point being, no one wants a new door stop!

Well, after no response, I contacted support directly. In that conversation, I determined that the strict security requirements for Windows 11, and the costs of assembly (lower-end laptop), there was no reason to add keys or device permissions to other OS loads (i.e. Official Debian or Ubuntu OS). There are ways to remove Windows Bootloaders, clear the UEFI, etc. that can be used to fresh load a different OS, but is very technical and requires a good level of knowledge of the systems and hardware (especially UEFI and the boot (EFI) files). Ultimately, no one wants to turn their HP devices into doorstops! Nuff Said!
