How Do I Execute the Oobe/bypassnro Command During a Fresh Windows Installation?

[evelynmarston]

I am setting up a brand-new desktop computer and trying to complete the initial configuration process without being forced to log into a Microsoft account. I know that using the oobe/bypassnro workaround in the command prompt allows you to set up a local user profile, but I can't seem to trigger the console window properly on the setup screen.

Every time I try pressing Shift + F10, nothing happens, and I'm stuck on the internet connection requirement page. Could someone walk me through the precise step-by-step sequence required to successfully bypass this screen and complete a clean offline installation?

hey @evelynmarston, tbh, i'm not sure the oobe/bypassnro thing will work, wait, have you tried using the windows 2026 setup media with the latest updates, honestly, it might just have a simpler way to skip that ms account requirement

@dude, i'm kinda stressed about this too, actually, have you tried using the windows 2026 setup media with the latest updates, it might just have a simpler way to skip that ms account requirement, imo, it's worth a shot, @evelynmarston

hey @evelynmarston, actually, have you checked out the new windows 2026 setup features, it's supposed to have some updates on local account setup, honestly, might be worth looking into that instead of using oobe/bypassnro

dude, i'm kinda stressed about this too, actually, have you guys tried using the windows 2026 setup media with the latest ai-powered installation features, imo, it's worth a shot

dude, honestly, i think the windows 2026 setup media is the way to go, it's got some cool new features, like ai-powered installation, that might make it easier to skip the ms account requirement, tbh, worth a shot, mate
