Windows 11 Bypass Mandatory Microsoft Account
Last Updated 26 days ago
Bypass Microsoft Account
Microsoft Windows 11 demands that you enter a valid Microsoft Account when you install it - this is of course stupid and a massive privacy issue. They make it almost impossible to bypass - but you can.
Here's how:
Home / Pro / Education
- Press Shift + F10
- Type in oobe\bypassnro
- This restarted the PC and took me back to the country selection
This will then require a reboot, after which you will be able to continue.
For LTSC
- Pressed Shift + F10
- start ms-cxh:localonly
- Enter an account name, and optionally a password
Important
There are plenty of hacks online that might achieve the same, but will break things later on especially registry hacks. Stick with the command line options.
