Although I don't remember ever seeing the exact phrase "Prepare the TPM" and have never seen it in anyone's screenshots or instructions, I do see in my notes and own screenshots from 2020 that I followed these steps: I rebooted into the BIOS menu and in Advanced > “Trusted Computing” changed HashPolicy from Sha-1 to Sha-2 and in Security changed Intel Platform Trust Technology from Disabled to Enabled. Then tpm.msc said “The TPM maintenance task is still running. Please wait a few […]” After waiting and refreshing, it said “The TPM is ready for use.” (Seems prepared.) | |
