How is seemingly everybody blind to the actual workaround but "knows" about a supposed "bypass" email??
Actual solution/workaround: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/all/set-up-windows-11-without-internet-oobebypassnro/4fc44554-b416-4ecb-8961-6f79fd55ae0f
It won't be long before they block that too. I really wouldn't put it past them to just say "Fuck it, no internet, no computer."
Glad I use Arch.
Many years of windows. No longer my problems.
I use Arch too btw
Airplane mode. Don't connect to internet
I believe this does not work for Home. You can bypass it in Pro like this though. Unless something has changed I am not aware of.
I have and use a Microsoft account. I would always setup my computer offline because I don't want my home folder to be called "myema"~~[email protected]~~
Seriously who thought that was a good idea? Your account literally has your name tied to it, call it that!
U can just open cmd and run a command or Evan better use tiny11 and the activator program that way u dont even need to pay the assholes
The Kingdom of Torvalds becomes more and more attractive for Windows refugees every day.
OOBE\BYPASSNRO FTW
Wow, exactly the feature I wanted. An account that Microsoft can link its spyware too. I'm sure that database won't be sold or stolen.
So am i missing something (yes well definitely but still)? You need an online account to login to windows. So if im somewhere where there is no internet i just cant login to my w11 laptop? I cant use my laptop.. wow. I havent touched windows in a long time but still. Thats gotta be nice for ppl that are always on the road for work. Damn.
I did this on Windows 10 not because I didn't want my Microsoft account linked but because I wanted my username to by my first name and not like part of my first and part of my last name.
Don't mind me. Just setting up a Windows 10 torrent to download while I'm at work.
Christ I am sick of Win11.
