Want a Windows 11 local account on a new laptop without signing in to Microsoft? This step-by-step tutorial shows the exact offline flow: choose region/keyboard, skip Wi-Fi, open admin Command Prompt with (Fn+)Shift+F10, run start ms-cxh:localonly to reveal the Local account option, set your username/password, and decline telemetry/ads prompts. We finish by confirming it’s a local administrator.
Tested September 2025.
