For some reason I can not view that page but I will add recent experiences. I burnt an image of Windows 11 from their ISO using Rufus [1a][1b] which is recommended by Microsoft and several Linux distributions for people moving from Windows to Linux. Rufus has check boxes to disable the requirement for a Microsoft Account upon installation from the ISO.

- rchaud 3y agoIf you have JS turned off, the site won't load. Don't turn it on though, because this domain loads autoplaying video ads and other JS-dependent cruft that slows everything down.

- mthoms 3y agoI kinda love the fact that it's on a Microsoft website even though the author takes some (not so subtle) digs at them. It took me a minute to realize this was a syndicated article from another site.
- aspenmayer 3y agoI can appreciate the chagrin, and share it to a point, but it almost feels like agitprop/misinformation in that it misrepresents the authoritativeness or lack thereof of the source of the information. Like, part of me wonders if the post would have hit the front page under the Laptop Mag url. Also, the MSN syndicated article/url version likely is contrary to HN guidelines.
