Want to have a airgapped machine? Sure as hell won’t be running win11
Probably better using 7 or Xp if you don’t need it going on the internet
I feel like this was already the case
Oof.
We’re removing the bypassnro.cmd script from the build to enhance security and user experience of Windows 11. This change ensures that all users exit setup with internet connectivity and a Microsoft Account.
Absolute bullshit
Just gonna leave this here. Do with it what you will.
While that’s a good site to be aware of in general, it does nothing to help with this issue. All that site does is activate Windows, it does not allow you to make a local user account.
It does provide you with access to the IoT LTSC or LTSC editions which I believe would still allow you to skip the need to set up a Microsoft account.
I could be wrong on that detail, it’s been a while.
It also has the ability to activate Windows 10 long-term support. Not a permanent solution, but lets you kick that can down the road.
Microsoft made some bullshit mandatory to lock in users as data chattel?
Shocked! Yes, shocked I am.
Microsoft: fuck you if you can’t afford internet
Also fuck you if your wifi drivers aren’t built in to windows.
Actually, setup allows for wifi drivers to be loaded in lol
I’m never deleting the Windows 11 installer ISO I downloaded months ago.
GREAT now setting up computers for work is just going to be THAT much more of hassle. Thanks MS.
I use Linux on my work computer lol.

So even TFA says it’s not completely going away. It’s just switching from a command to a registry entry. Additionally Windows 11 Enterprise most likely won’t be affected or LTSC.
