Look for Security or Advanced options.
Find TPM, Intel PTT, or AMD fTPM (naming may vary based on the manufacturer).
Enable the option (e.g., “TPM Device”, “PTT”, “AMD PSP fTPM”).
Save and Exit BIOS settings.
✅ Step 3: Verify TPM is Enabled
After rebooting, press Windows + R
, type tpm.msc

The TPM Management window should display "The TPM is ready for use."

Some devices call TPM "Security Device" or "Trusted Computing."
