    Setting up a local user account only is easy. Shift+f10 to open command prompt and then run OOBE\BYPASSNRO and then you can run the setup with zero network requirements and zero account requirements.

      That no longer works.

      Tried it on my girlfriend’s new gaming laptop about 4 months ago and it did nothing, so just went back to using my custom Rufus install.

        With Rufus it doesn’t even ask for a MS account, indeed.

          It’s a simple command, kinda hard to mess up repeatedly.

          It’s probably something to do with which Windows edition is used. This was just a consumer grade laptop after all
