This might be relevant to those who wish / have to use Windows 11:
This week, Microsoft made it very clear that it wants to block the popular BYPASSNRO workaround, used to skip the internet and Microsoft Account requirement checks during the Windows 11 installation OOBE (initial setup), although thankfully, the script can still be created using Registry edits.
A 7 step guide.
I don’t really get it why people jump through these major hoops just to get Windows working the way they want it to. Just ditch the problem.
Sure that’s ok for your personal machine. Now convince leadership that your 500 machine fleet needs to be switched over to Linux.
Well, if a company has 500 machines and all of them having microsoft online accounts raises no security questions, I ain’t working there, simple as that
I have software I need that doesn’t run on Linux, and doesn’t have a Linux equivalent.
It takes me 10 seconds to remove internet access from yet another windows process, it takes weeks if not months to re-download the 2 point something TB of games I have installed.
People who have a real internet connection need another excuse but my internet isnt good for 2005, let alone 2025.
