➕ Setting up a Windows 11 machine without a Microsoft Account is possible, just not in the least bit obvious.
➕ Windows 11 with only a local account
To set up Windows 11 with only a local account, select “Set up for personal use” during setup, then “Sign in” at the Microsoft account prompt. Enter “no@thankyou.com“, or the email address of any locked Microsoft account, as the email, a random password, and proceed despite the error. You can then create a local account with a username, password, and security questions.
