Let's NOT finish setting up my device

Hello, my friends! Let's hit 10000 likes? Check out my website! enderman.ch
Today I am going to show you a few different fun ways to skip a stupid annoying forced Windows 10 setup prompt. By design you can't get rid of it except if you unset a small checkbox lost in many others or perform a registry hack. You will either be complying or reminded of it every 3 days. Good news is that you can avoid it in fun ways and trash it.
Still got questions? Don't hesitate, send them to [e-mail]!
Hope you have a great day!

Protip: You can hit ctrl+shift+esc while on the "set up your device" screen, to spawn task manager/process explorer, and using the alt-tab preview to peek as needed, bring the focus to task manager and keyboard navigate to the task and hit delete to kill the task.

The thing that he upgraded his main system to windows 11 is unbelievable.

[@folddyy]

so you're basically saying "oh, the fact that he made his own choice is unbelievable"?

[@KingGamingReal]

I’m pretty sure that’s still windows 10. It has rounded corners and new buttons, but the win 10 taskbar and desktop icons are still there, so unless there’s a program that lets you use the old taskbar again and it’s fully functional, I think this is just windows 10 with some windows style modifications

[@techatharva]

I can confirm this because the taskbar icon-background (the underlined line under the current focus app) is like windows 11and the search icon. He also uploaded a clip in his second channel and we can see that its windows11. Edit: Also the taskbar tray is the win11 one.

6:36 classic enderman moment 3:08 i like how it synced

[@justarandoleet]

Hey Enderman, you can apparently do a similar thing after first installing windows when it asks you to create a user/sign in with microsoft account. I pressed Win+R combination to bring up the run window and then just type cmd to open the command prompt (no style points for this tho). Due to lack of knowlegde of windows processes, i didn't know which process it was. Killing it through the task manager made it spawn again. Tho I am sure you can pull this off. perhaps we can also use this in windows 11 to completely skip the whole process as one of the editions require you to have a microsoft acc before logging in

EDIT 2022-05-06: I just got back, but SOMEHOW Windows will erase the ScoobeSystemSettingEnabled value along with the UserProfileEngagement key automatically without warning, why is Win10 so unbelievably bad? EDIT 2022-05-09: Actually, now I'm not sure, maybe I forgot to set the key and value altogether and I was just tripping, though I WOULDN'T be surprised considering Win10 being Win10 and all. You are like the unsung hero of Windows, I'll be honest, I didn't like the "Let's finish setting up your device" screen, it's ridiculously unnecessary and it's also somewhat slow (Which doesn't help since Windows 10 consumes 100% CPU usage on power up for legit no reason) making it definitely one of many reasons why I quit using Win10 months ago. Thanks for your good deeds and I'll look forward to seeing more fixes like this in the future.
