The more funny part of this statement is he's too fucking dumb to Google "set up windows 11 without Microsoft account" and follow exactly 3 steps to bypass the OOBE wizard.
They break whatever process people use whenever they feel like it.
Whether the loopholes are incompetence or just for the sake of them being able to claim "you don't need an account", they definitely aren't stable and consistent options. And it's pretty clear that at some point they're going to cross the line and just make you have an account.
What? Ctrl+F10 for Command Prompt and then
oobe\bypassnro
has always worked, and I don't see Microsoft removing it anytime soon. Who do you think put thebypassnro.bat
script in theOOBE
directory on every Windows installation media?To be fair, the option is pretty easy to miss for someone who isn't technical. Font size -11000 and grwy or whatever, though I might exaggerate.
