Does this trick actually work?

    1. DON’T CONNECT TO WI-FI

    2. Shit+F10 (you might need to hit Fn+Shift+F10) will open up command prompt

    3. OOBE\BYPASSNRO

    4. It should now reboot and give you the option to make a local account in the fine print

      This is the way! I did this recently with a recent Win11 Pro installation.

      This is also the proper way to name the user’s folder yourself instead of letting Microsoft decide. The auto namer often makes poor choices and renaming it breaks a lot of stuff unless you wipe and reinstall.
