  1. Are these methods also valid for installing Win 10?

    • On Windows 10 it's simpler. Before starting the installation, remove the network cable, and during the installation routine, do not connect to WiFi. Thus you will have the option of installing with a local account.

  2. Thank you.

    For the e-mail address I enter the text written between the quotation marks "admin", and for the password I write the text entered between the quotation marks "1234", and thus I can bypass the need for an account, because with that account it appears to me that it is blocked. I've been using this thing since Windows 8, and it still works on 11.

  4. Good job!

  5. Goog job!
