How to Bypass Microsoft Account login Windows 11 NEW VERSION 2024
• How To Skip Or Bypass ...
Previously this was a little easier to do, but as always the game of cat and mouse with Microsoft continues!
To bypass the need to use a Microsoft account to login to Windows 11.
This allows a local Adminstrator account to be used rather than an account tied to Microsoft and their business partners.
After the initial Windows 11 setup, press shift + F10 to bring up the Command Prompt.
Click on the Window to make it the active Window.
Now type in
oobe\BypassNRO and then press enter. This will reboot the system.
Next when setup resumes we need to press shift + F10 again to bring up the Command prompt.
Again click on the Window to make it the active Window.
Now type in
ipconfig /release and then press enter
This will disconnect your Internet connection.
This forces the option for I don't have an Internet connection and allow a local Administrator account to be created.
After Windows 11 desktop opens reboot the computer again to gain Internet access.
If the Internet still won't connect.
from the search bar look for CMD and open a command prompt and type
IPconfig /renew
and this should give the Computer a new IP address and Internet connectivity.
Also if you are using new hardware that Windows 11 doesn't have built in drivers for, You will need to download the drivers from the motherboard manufacturers website on another computer and transfer them on a USB stick.

[@mikesunboxing]

thanks for watching

[@emrose3308]

Istg for each new computer I set up for users, they add a new step or make it harder to bypass the sign in. Just a few months ago it was enough to enter an email and spam the wrong password a few times

[@ItsOk-mq9ex]

Man... I needed this like a week ago. Reinstalled and had the bright idea making one of those 17 character pw, Followed by needing to restart numerous times installing software... what a pain that was haha.

[@Cameron_D]

Hi just wanted to say thank you. This did work for me but with a difference. I didn’t get the “I don’t have internet” page. I got the one after it, and I had to Fn F9 “airplane mode” then it worked for me. Luckily I was using a laptop. 🎉

[@danmar007]

I laughed when I saw Canadian Multilingual Standard under United Kingdom. We're all just one big happy family, aren't we? 😲 Great stuff!

[@mikesunboxing]

Yes we are

[@mikep9418]

I tried the OOBE trick a few weeks back and it was coming up command not recognised. I ended up have to change the default command line directory to something else. I can't remember which one exactly. I eventually got it to work anyway. I hate the fact that they assume you have an Internet connection.

[@mikesunboxing]

yeah it is a long way away from the Windows 95 and 98 install routine

[@TraitorFelon.14.3]

It’s like buying a boat. They assume you have access to water.

[@mikep9418]

@TraitorFelon.14.3 No it's not. There's plenty of ways you can use a PC without having to connect to the Internet.

[@estebansamaniego3396]

I bought a mini pc recently & obviously things have changed since you made the vid but, I noticed that instead of doing the ipconfig cmd, for wired connections just unplug the ethernet cable & doesnt even ask for no internet option.

[@zzoinks]

Interesting! So maybe if the computer does not have a Wi-Fi card built-in, just ethernet, not having the Ethernet cable plugged in allows you to bypass the Internet requirement?

[@zzoinks]

If that's the case, I wonder if device manager can be opened from the command prompt, and the Wi-Fi card disabled, and since a ethernet cable is not plugged in Windows set up might let us skip the internet requirement?

[@estebansamaniego3396]

@@zzoinks nah man everyone of this is going to have wifi, the better question is does it have Ethernet port if so then use that skip wifi & try to get passed the Microsoft account sign in step

[@BenLyons-f1f]

Added Note, after you do ipconfig /release and you get to the desktop you have to use ipconfig /renew to get internet back.

[@mikesunboxing]

yes or reboot and start up again

[@NejdetACAR]

First of all, thank you for the information you provided. In your speech at the opening of your video, you speak so fast that I listened to that part 5 times to understand what you were saying. Everyone who watches your videos may not be a native English speaker or may not have a very good command of English. I can guess that the videos are generally spoken so quickly to keep them short, but I wanted to remind you of this point. Best regards

[@mikesunboxing]

yes i am aware of that, it is a problem that is hard to find the happy ground. I often suggest using the youtube settings cog and slow down the playback speed a little, that seems to help

[@OlettaLiano]

Hi, Mike. Personally, I don't see the problem with installing Windows with a MS Account. I have my Windows key attached to it. That let me use the same Windows key with three different motherboards. After the install is done, then it's easy to switch to a local account.

[@CyberClu]

Okay, so what if you want to re-sell your PC to a stranger? Or what about those of us that like to flip budget gaming PC's? This is why what Mike is doing is necessary.

[@OlettaLiano]

@@CyberClu That's a good point, however I don't expect this bypass to work for very long. Windows is cracking down on such bypasses, as well as what applications you can download and install on Windows 11 24H2. Which is why I've switched to Linux Mint.

[@mikesunboxing]

yeah true there isn't a perfect solution for everyone

[@jul5385]

It worked. Thanks so much. The step that required a Windows account to setup the system is so dumb. It should have be optional. This is why corporations got sued.

[@MusicianGreg]

What pros won't tell you. If you cant use shift + F10, try Fn + shift + F10. Sometimes the keyboard on the laptop is set to function keys as default, so if you press just f10 you will be pressing a special function not the actual F10. Leave a like :)

[@mikesunboxing]

this is very true

[@mikaelbiilmann6826]

I am preparing my laptop for resale. Can I get it to connect to the internet and the buyers' Microsoft account after this? I tried it and I don't get the "I have no internet" option. I just turned off the laptop and hope that the buyer has a Microsoft account. I would have liked to updated it all and ready to be sold, but Microsoft has made this impossible. They and Apple are trying to outdo each other in awfulness.

[@jasonwoods4811]

Great advice once again, thanks Mike and Kath

[@mikesunboxing]

thanks Jason

[@a.j.haverkamp4023]

The command line isn’t capital sensitive. And use the TAB key to autofill the name/check the name of the directory and cmd file. OOBE = Out Of Box Experience.

[@OlettaLiano]

Correct. The Windows Command Prompt is case insensitive. Not so with Linux.

[@jayn8864]

If it’s not working for you try holding fn before hitting f10 👍🏾

[@mikesunboxing]

good shout

[@pitbul66ty25]

Thanks my man, I was really confused on why I couldn't just type in a fake email but you helped.

[@mechax9498]

Works perfectly fine. Only issue i had was that after restart it skipped internet connection and wanted to login but with cmd i could disconnect and everything worked fine

[@elitescreensvn]

Thank you! It totally work. If you already connected to the internet you can still do this method, I just had to do the process bypass twice.

[@mikesunboxing]

Glad it helped

[@jonesy2892]

Thanks for your comment. I was stuck on that step because I'd already connected to the internet.

[@enigmalex3649]

I just type random pass and mail and it will continue installation without microsoft account. I don't know if that still works :)

[@mikesunboxing]

seems that in this new build and with the auto update section it doesn't, or at least it didn't for me

[@Checkmate1138]

QUESTION: After I do this, I want to reverse this "bypass" action and re-turn on the "connect to internet" screen. How do I reverse this action? The reason is because we do actually want to connect to the internet with our Windows account. We're only doing this "bypass" action because we want to verify if our new laptop has been already activated by someone unknowingly. We don't know if this "bypass" action is permanent or not. Please reply soon! 🙏

[@mikesunboxing]

if your laptop has already been activated you won't get the OOBE at startup

[@T.N.24]

Thx it works 👍! But do u need to reverse the "ipconfig /release" step? Doesn't that affect your ip address/internet in any way??

[@mikesunboxing]

It will reset or get an ip after the next reboot

[@T.N.24]

Ah ok, tyvm!

[@WilliamAndrewPhilipBodie]

MI6 Special Agent Mike knows how to bypass most things 😀

[@mikesunboxing]

[@rodrigomoura1150]

Pls help me, I did the exact same thing with the oobe/Bypassnro, it worked and I had to set it all up again which I did, then when the setup was finally completed I had access to the desktop. The first thing I tried to do was connecting to Wifi, but it doesnt even show any devices or it doesnt have a Wifi option at all. What should I do???

[@mikesunboxing]

check in the bios that the wifi is enabled, if it is get the driver from the motherboard manufacturers website on a USB stick and install it from there, it might be in device manager as an unknown device
