The hardware ID ACPI\MSFT0101 refers to the Intel(R) Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0
Q: What is the ACPI MSFT0101 driver? A: The ACPI MSFT0101 driver is a software component that enables communication between the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) and the Microsoft Windows operating system.
Windows Hello facial recognition and PIN logins utilize TPM 2.0 for credential storage.
The term stands for Advanced Configuration and Power Interface, which helps your operating system communicate with your hardware. MSFT0101 is the specific plug-and-play hardware ID assigned by Microsoft to the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 .
Understanding the ACPI\MSFT0101 Driver If you see listed as an "Unknown Device" with a yellow warning icon in your Windows Device Manager, you are likely missing the driver for the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 . This component is a security feature on your motherboard, often part of the Intel Platform Trust Technology (PTT) on newer Intel Skylake and later systems.
