Quick and simple way to see if the TPM on a computer is Enabled, Activated and Owned – all of which are required before using them for BitLocker:
wmic /namespace:\\root\cimv2\security\microsofttpm path win32_tpm get IsEnabled_InitialValue wmic /namespace:\\root\cimv2\security\microsofttpm path win32_tpm get IsActivated_InitialValue wmic /namespace:\\root\cimv2\security\microsofttpm path win32_tpm get IsOwned_InitialValue
As long as they all return as “True” you’re good to go.

You need to run as administrator
CMD needs to be ran as admin, otherwise WMIC will result in access denied.

And if i get No Instance(s) Available ?
No TPM present or the OS can’t see it I guess. Make sure it’s enabled in the BIOS? Best way to confirm this is to use PowerShell – https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/trustedplatformmodule/get-tpm?view=win10-ps
