  1. Windows installation via USB missing local account option


    I am going to pass out my old computer to a friend and I am reinstalling windows, but for some reason after the first steps, when I am asked to log in, there is no option to create a local account, only an outlook account, and I want to actually install some things for him, when did that change, why is it no longer an option?

    :)

  2. Local account installation question


    I'm fairly certain that Skip this step was available in 10.0.130 - the workaround in Step 20 (back button) is no longer required.

    The currently known, as of 10.0.130, ways to create a Local account sign-in are
    • Skip this step at the MS account creation phase
    • No Internet connection during the install
    • static IP (post# 2 by Fragment) - New (to me anyway)

    Windows installation via USB missing local account option

    Clean Install, no option to create Local Account

    Hello mate, *Smile

    This is an issue for the Windows Home edition.

    However, when you get to step 24 in the tutorial below while doing a clean install, you can enter a bogus phone number to then have the "Offline account" link option to create a local account.

    Clean Install Windows 10
