Windows 11 VM in Azure DevTestLab with TPM 2.0

Question

I've some virtual machines in my Azure DevTestLab.
When I add an Windows 11 machine, it is created correctly.
BUT:
There is no TPM 2.0 available or set for the VM.
If I create normal Virutal Machine in Azure, I can select the "Trusted Launch" option that enables TPM 2.0.

How can I enable TPM 2 for a VM in the DevTestLab?

The problem:
Without TPM 2.0 all the nice windows updates in the vm fails :-(

Thanks
Konrad

Hi,
Azure DevTestLab does not support Trusted Lauch. This can be seen by looking at the API compared to Virtual Machines API. securityProfile property is not there which corresponds to the Trusted Launch feature. As Windows 11 requires TPM this basically means that Windows 11 is not supported on DevTestLab. I would suggest to use the UserVoice for feedback/requests.
