I had to get around this last week during a vm install.
Shift+F10, OOBE\BYPASSNRO, Shift+F10, ipconfig /release, install, ipconfig /renew.
That's a lot of work for the average person and it's only a matter of time before they disable that command.
- prettymuchnoone 2y agonot sure if it's true (i haven't tried installing anything later than 23h2 i think), but i heard that oobe\bypassnro doesn't even work anymore https://x.com/TheBobPony/status/1797517797624598988 https://x.com/TheBobPony/status/1797517797624598988
- Throw_Away_1049 2y agoI did it yesterday on a brand new Surface 7 Copilot+ Laptop (such a dumb name…).

- ndriscoll 2y agoIt's like there's a memory of configuring xorg.conf or wpa_supplicant that just won't go away even when that stuff has Just Worked for 15 years. Even Nixos (which isn't at all a noob friendly distribution) has a desktop installer where you just click next like 5 times.

- Nzen 2y agoI tried this and other suggested commands while setting up my windows 11 laptop last year, to no avail. It refused to budge until connected to the internet. Luckily, I was on an airplane with internet that required payment. I let it connect to the wifi and, to my surprise, it relented by allowing me to create a local account. I am curious if there is a way to simulate this setup in a home network for when I need to set up my next computer.

- Covzire 2y agoDon't ask me how I know this, but you can also bypass the MS account requirement by putting in a very profane and insulting-to-Microsoft email address for the sign in.
