I’m totally in agreement that they shouldn’t hide the option to create a local account, but I’m relatively sure this isn’t true.

It’s entirely possible that something like this did exist in some earlier installer version but I don’t know that from a vague statement like this. Feels kinda like throwing Windows under the bus unnecessarily.

> When setting up Windows 11, disconnect your Ethernet cable, and then cross your fingers that you see a "I don't have internet" option when prompted to connect to a network. If you do, that's great, go ahead and click it, and use a local account. However, there is a good chance you won't see the option, as shown in the screen grab above. If that is the case, the folks at Neowin discovered that you can bypass linking to a Microsoft ID by pressing Alt + F4.
