Set up Windows without online account

On Windows setup, Windows often asks for an online account to set up your computer. If you're like me, and hate Microsoft, and want as little involvement from them as possible, you can press Shift+F10 (or possibly Shift+Fn+F10, if your keyboard has a shared set of function keys, such as F10 sharing the same key as "Volume Up") to open a terminal.

In this terminal, type and run start ms-cxh:localonly. The former most common way to do this, oobe\bypassnro, is potentially being discontinued as a bypass for creating an online account.

Once you run this, you will be prompted to create a local account, requiring a password and security questions, but notably not requiring an internet connection!
