Can't it be added again by users? Cmd does not sound like a complicated piece of binary code

  This script just added single key to the registry and rebooted the machine (restarting the installer). The underlying functionality which allowed to use local user, if registry key was present, was coded into the installer itself. So if they just removed that 2-line bat file, it's not a big problem. You still can add that entry to the registry, just with more complicated command. Here's its code: @echo off reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OOBE /v BypassNRO /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f shutdown /r /t 0

    It's probably safe to assume that they'll remove the BypassNRO functionality altogether from Setup, not just the script that enables it.

      Hopefully they use it for internal automated testing and will always need it in there.
