TPM 2.0

I have a Dell OptiPlex 3020 that was refurbished. It says 1.2 but I need to upgrade to 2.0. It says the BIOS Version/Date Dell Inc A19, 10/30/2018. How can I upgrade this? Or do I need to buy a new computer?

Hi

I do not believe it can be upgraded.

Your next step is your choice, depending on what you are trying to achieve.

It depends on what you need.  If it's full support for Windows 11 and Windows updates being automatic, yes you do need a new system.

You can install Windows 11 without TPM support and on the unsupported CPU that system has, but you'll be on your own to do updates from then on - they won't be automatic.
