This is why I make students install a copy of Windows without the use of a mouse.
Mr.Gates is not in Microsoft for years, but yes
Surprised there wasn’t a conspiratorial reference to covid testing in the meme tbh
Switched to Linux… got tired of them changing the settings for me with updates.
Our internal documentation for setting up a windows VM literally says “Press ‘maybe later’ for the next 9 screens”
Slipstreamed windows is the only way. Skip all this bullshit and pre-remove all the bloatware fuckery too. Highly recommend if you are installing windows regularly: https://techcult.com/how-to-slipstream-windows-10-installation/
OOSU10 is also helpful if you don’t wanna mess with install media.
The illusion of choice
Bill Gates no longer works for Microsoft. He couldn’t care less about you’re data.
No, you’re data!
Let us hope he is not just data but an actual person.
Welcome to “windows as a service”. At this point Windows is basically like a freemium app.
Yes, except the free part
Wait, you’re paying for Windows?
Part of the price when you buy a computer.
Where linux tho
On the USB stick
Spoiler alert, when you hit accept all tabs go back to “on”.
Every year that passes makes me happier I switched to Linux only instead of dual booting. Happy Debian user here.
I just bought a used laptop that came with windows 11. After all of this data collection crap it started blue screening after I installed the first set of updates.
Pop Os has been running flawlessly.
Does it required a microsoft account now? Or can we still install it without connected to the internet
Yeah, but you can create local account.
With the installing media running:
• Shift+F10 (opens cmd) >
OOBE\BYPASSNRO• Continue until getting to creating account
◦◦ Account >
123@123.com/test@test.com/a@b.com/1@1.ru/fuckoff@microsoft.com/a@outlook.com/d@d.d/na@na.com◦◦ Password > *enter any random password*
• […] > How would you like to set up this device > Set up for work or school
With an existing system:
• CMD >
net user /add *E: Wording.
Yeah but I turn on airplane mode and it doesn’t need an account anymore. Lpt for those of you out there.
Actually, better tip, use Linux.
True, but i still need to keep a copy of windows for my average Joe friends. Not gonna preach the hard way thought, i want them to slowly convert to Linux hahaha.
Especially more and more games arw supported in Linux, either native or via proton
Me myself, already using Linux for the past 3 Years :D
I think it’s still technically possible with some workaround but they indeed kind of killed offline accounts with Windows 11
It’s not hard at all, when making an account one of the options is to make it offline/local only. Sure it’s a small link below the big buttons but it’s there and not hidden.
It used to be that way, but last time I tried the only way is to disconnect from the internet otherwise it will force it.
I just made an offline account 3 days ago on a windows 11 machine so I dunno what to say man
You guys should try making your install media using Rufus

i really like ventoy, but when i tried to install fedora a few months ago it wouldn’t work for some reason. I switched back to just flashing one iso at a time now through the recommended way since i usually don’t need more than one iso anyway.
deleted by creator
Yeah that’s what i use mostly now
I recently created win11 install media with rufus and I was amazed with what it can do. Makes the whole install a breeze since you don’t need to turn off the telemetry and log in to M$ account. All around plesant experience
i don’t care enough, waiting for critical mass
