Is there no longer an option to use a local account if the internet isn't available?
I followed a guide on YouTube to install windows 11 without an account. It also helped me disable a lot of crap.
Despite what people tell you in here Linux isn’t an amazing alternative if you don’t want to spend time setting it up to be a replacement.
I’m a software engineer and when I leave work I don’t want to be solving more problems.
I am the furthest thing from a techie but I have been using Linux for several years. Never in a million years could I return to windows.
Linux doesn't break often in my experience

I may be wrong on this, but I believe they don't give you that option, and just ask to be connected to the internet before continuing setup. You can, however, do some shenanigans to open up command prompt, and after a little bit of typing in commands from the internet and restarting your machine, you can then skip the account login and just make a local account.
Here's the link for anyone who's looking for it: https://nitter.net/elonmusk/status/1761835728000954654
No I am not seeing it I use Linux
See? That's why you're not a genius like Elon Musk! He knows that Linux is too hard!
Don't you need to create an X account just to look at posts on X?
Don't you need to give all your information to AI if you have ever interacted with the government in the past?

For the world’s smartest guy, he sure is stupid
Anyone who thinks he's the smartest guy at anything has been organically lobotomized by a brain worm
Wait we don’t live in a meritocracy after all?
Opposite
It's simple z we buy Microsoft

We know how this ends
- Elon complains
- Elon buys
- Elon destroys
Microsoft has a market cap of over 3 trillion.
Musk is crazy stupid rich times a million, but he's an order of magnitude shy of being able to bully Microsoft with his wallet. With the resources of the US government, sure. but not his checkbook.
If Elon destroyed MS, that would be a net positive.
Click domain join instead and then create a local account
That option only shows up when you set up Pro edition unfortunately.
I feel like someone as rich as Musk probably boight Windows Pro.
Shift F10 opens a command window, OOBE\bypassnro
Or run ipconfig /release
This will disconnect your internet connection for a moment and allow you to create a local account.
Ah yes, that well documented command that any regular user is going to know about...
All I can come up with is snarky comments. Sorry.
If you are savvy enough to be outraged at it, you're savvy enough to look up the commands to bypass it in 2 minutes.
RTFM oh wait it's Windows.
