Can I get tpm on my dell laptop?
I have a dell Inspiron 15 3543 and was wondering if I could get tpm on my laptop so I can install windows 11 as support for windows 10 is ending pretty soon. It has an intel® core(TM) i3-5005U at 2ghz. I can't get intel PTT because there is no option in the bios for it, and there is no header for me to add a tpm chip. I don't want to forcefully install windows 11 on it because then I won't be able to get security updates which is basically the reason I want to got windows 11 for. Is it possible for me to do something?

Hi
TPM will not allow W11 as your CPU is is 5th generation, and Microsoft want an 8th Generation I believe.

@anne_droid well, guess I overlooked that.I'll probably just switch to a Linux distro.

So try a live linux mint, if it suits, install it.
You can then try and W11 using workarounds if you wish.
But Linux is a good choice.
