Solved Microsoft blocks all options to bypass MS Account on new Installs


I gave it a try to this Java procedure and faced the same issue as "Shift + F10", it was not accepting "Ctrl + Shift + J" either
@hsehestedt a key step was missed.
Inorder for the keybind to work, you cannot be focusing on the button selection.

I like to click on the graphic on the left of the screen to shift the focus. THEN I press the keys for it to work.

Edit:
I have not tested this yet on latest canary as of present, this is just from my documentation.
It works on almost any screen not only the keyboard screen. I just say to do it there to at least have region and keyboard set correctly

So an update from me using canary:

Javascript method still works on latest canary just fine. Also gave it a test with OSK and it works, need to open OSK then click the graphic and then ctrl shift J.

Bypassnro method still works fine (when run before network connection) but as previously mentioned, cmd did not launch after the first boot. I had to reset my vm before cmd could open. I didnt have this problem with Javascript method tho as this runs directly in the oobe.

I also tried some other methods like disabling my network adaptor with ncpa.cpl while checking for updates, that still works.

The command was oobe\bypassnro, but it has been removed from latest canary 27871.

This command below still works with latest Canary build 27871. I just tried it. 😉

Not sure what the current Windows version is on the Media Creation Tool, but I done a clean install on one of my PCs today and the oobe worked. . . If I have to, I'll switch to Windows X-Lite (I already have it on one of my PCs). There will always be a workaround to bypass the internet part. Someone will come up with something. I hate using MS Accounts for my computer. I've always used local, and that's what i'm used to. I'm sure there are others like me. I can always use Rufus, too!

Yes, it works on current public Build 26100.xxxx, but not on Canary Build 27871.1000. 🤷‍♂️
MS removed that option.
For now, there are other ways to install with Local Account and without Internet.
As I said earlier the command below still works. 🤞

There are other ways that also work still, so rest assured that, at least for now, all is still good.
