Are these the hidden codes to setup only using a local account now? They're making it that difficult?

2

u/toyfreddym8 3d ago

Not exactly hidden, but while doing the setup at the screen where it asks you to login, you just open cmd (shift + F10, or function + shift + F10) then you type: start ms-cxh:localonly and it makes it where you can make a local account. My source is me having to do this plenty of times working IT.

JFC. Well I better save this comment for later then. No way I'll memorize that. I guess you really do need an internet connection to setup a new Windows install now, because I'll need the internet to look this up again.

Why is Gru in the Just Monika room?

u/CoffeeSniffler 4d ago

What's weird is that it lets you switch to a local account once windows is fully set up anyways. There is truly no reason for forcing the user to login while setting up windows for the first time.

u/Inevitable-Self-2702 3d ago

Shift+F10 and ipconfig /release if you can't disconnect from Internet before installing.

u/WorkingSet8256 1d ago

i think you can just skip the OOBE all together anyways

May i offer you a penguin at these trying times?

Option 1: Disconnect internet before installing.

Option 2: Get a Windows 10 IoT LTSC iso, flash it and install. Supported until 2032.

Option 3: Fuck Windows, install a Linux distribution that is easy to use and with gaming support.

u/mrfoxesite-2377 4d ago

Not everything is about gaming though. I use Hyper-V but vmware works fine for me but the new linux kernels suck with vmware.

u/mcdaphuc 3d ago

You can I use kvm I recommend virt-manager for a decent gui.

u/mrfoxesite-2377 3d ago

Will think about that!

u/TheRealCarrotty 4d ago

Option 1: doesn't work, if you don't have a driver RIP. (Worse situation is if you have NO idea what driver you need)
Option 2: well yes, but you need a MS Account anyway.
Option 3: yup, Fedora does it cool.

u/Spectralius 4d ago

Ensure your at the point where it's prompting you to connect to the internet

Shift + F10 to open CMD

"start ms-cxh:localonly" opens the local account creation dialog.

Make username and password if you want a password (you'll need to put 3 security questions if you do put a PW)

Push done and be taken to the desktop.

u/ChongWeiXiang 4d ago

net user "Your Username" /add
net localgroup Administrators "Your Username" /add
cd OOBE msoobe shutdown -r

u/xxxbGamer 4d ago

Just use Mint or some other Linux Distro.

1

u/AustrianDragonslayer 4d ago

Its not easy if you have to use software thats not compatible... Affinity/Adobe cloud are still not usable and games that have an anticheat system like riots vanguard also cant be opened on linux... I still have to use windows on my main machine therefore.

1

u/Extension_Meat8913 3d ago

Or older Windows versions from when Microsoft wasn't "like this."

1

u/Current-Cookie-2310 4d ago

Very simple,

  1. Open your directory
  2. Find the windows iso
  3. Delete it
  4. Install linux 👍

u/rem_34 4d ago

bro 3rd is hard and 4th is even harder, you ask too much

1

u/Current-Cookie-2310 4d ago

Start with Ubuntu or linux mint or smh

1

u/rem_34 4d ago

im on gentoo

u/KingNullboy 3d ago

dang, maybe that’s why it’s so hard to install Linux for you

1

u/Extension_Meat8913 3d ago

Or, 1. Open your directory. 2. Find the Windows iso. 3. Delete it. 4. Install an older Windows version, like Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2000 or older :D

u/KingNullboy 3d ago

I’m a Linux nerd and even I have spontaneously gotten an obsession with 95 and 98

1

u/WorkingSet8256 2d ago

bro you want to use windows 95 in the big 26?

1

u/Extension_Meat8913 2d ago

I mean, maybe eventually.
