Can you install Windows 11 without a Microsoft account instead of the already installed Windows 11? In other words, is it possible to do without a Microsoft account? Thank you for the answer.

    Hello,

    Yes, it's possible there are several methods, here is the fastest one:

    Start the installation and just when you reach the login screen where you're asked to log in to your Microsoft account or the network, open the command prompt, type the following command and press enter, the local account creation window should appear:

    start ms-cxh:localonly

      Hello,

      If I understood correctly, this is not a clean installation without a Microsoft account but rather stopping its use on an already installed PC.

    Hello,

    At the Windows installation via USB stick (created with the Windows 11 ISO file + Rufus)

    https://www.microsoft.com/fr-fr/software-download/windows11

    https://rufus.ie/fr/

    Boot from it using the PC's Boot Menu key

    You can search on Google "[Brand Model] Boot Menu Key"

    Click (if offered): Previous version of the configuration

    Choose "Custom installation" (not upgrade)

    When it asks you to connect to a WiFi (since the Ethernet cable is disconnected beforehand)

    If you don't have the option "I don't have Internet"

    Press Shift + F10
