2 quick advice: 1. Don't enter a password on intial setup. It will skip the "additional Questions" like pet-name or stuff. You can later setup a password without the question within the computer-management - console 2. When the "Hi ... Welcome to Windows" - message appears on first login: Press CTRL + ALT + Delete and select "logoff". You can immediately login again and don't have to see those nice messages on the black background telling you to "setup" stuff for you...

[@jasonmicron]

I never understood the whole concept of "Additional Questions" for local accounts. Well, I mean, I get the INTENT of it, but I seriously, seriously, SERIOUSLY, doubt any user has even used it. If they're installing a local account using an ISO install, I highly doubt they've even had to consider the answers. I just type in junk. Then after the system gets going I join to a domain (work) or during the install I just sign in with my Microsoft account (personal).

[@ishid_anfarded_king]

@@jasonmicron i'd argue that security questions actually make you less secure, especially for some people who put their entire lives on public. If someone who knows you well wants to access your stuff they easily can.

[@jasonmicron]

@@ishid_anfarded_king Very true. That's why password lockers are critical to securing your accounts. There are still financial institutions that use security questions FFS. I use 1Password and it allows you to generate 'junk' answers that you can just plug in for sites that still follow that model.

I hope you will continue to enjoy making videos for a long time. I'm eagerly waiting for your uploads. Thanks! All the best

If you leave the setup password blank it won‘t bug you with security questions and you can change your password later.

[@jonnyhepcat]

While this is a very basic tutorial, I am certain that I would have spent a significant amount of time trying to figure out how to include the TPM and encryption options in the VM settings. Thanks!

Wow, windows is still around! In all seriousness, nice to know how to do this now. I have VMs for 7 and 2k but I guess a lot of software wouldn't run on these anymore. Hopefully QEMU will add TPM emulation eventually.

[@imperia777]

There is TPM for QEMU I think.
