M$ eliminates workaround requiring an account during Win 11 installation

[SpacemanSpiff]

They're trying (again) to railroad their customer base into creating an account on their (Microsoft) service as a requirement for installing win11
I remain hopeful as there still seems to be a means to avoid it... most likely will not be as easy for the less tech-savy folk.

Microsoft eliminates workaround that circumvents Microsoft account requirement during Windows 11 installation

But the ‘command not recognized’ error that now appears can be fixed with regedit.

As mentioned in the body there, Rufus does a nice job of removing the crap from Windows 11 install experience. Download the Win11 iso, put it on USB stick via Rufus.

'specially since the coming of the high capacity thumb drive(s). Rufus & a 16GB+ thumbdrive is such a great tool!

Even if you only a have a smaller thumbdrive avail... swapping out .iso files is so much more convenient than creating a bootable optical media, or thumb drive with a single program install
