TPM 2.0 module issue

Hi,

On youngest's machine they wanted to upgrade to Windows 11 Pro from Windows 10 Pro. I also installed Q4OS on a separate drive in the Hot Swap Bay.
Disabled Secure Boot and Fast Boot. The motherboard is an ASUS RoG Maximus Viii Ranger. Initially Microsoft stated these machines were not compatible for Windows 11 but it upgraded anyway. Later TPM 2.0 module installed purchased from Amazon that is compatible with the Motherboard. Now will only boot into Windows 11. Any way to get Q4OS to boot again? Are there any TPM tools available in Q4OS to sort this out?

Re: TPM 2.0 module issue

I honestly dont bother with the TPM 2.0 issues as using Rufus to install Windows and using its features to turn off the cpu/TPM check works great.
