Comment on Windows 11 just isn't enticing Windows 10 users to upgrade, and its market share is actually falling

You don’t have to be a techie to see it. There’s a button right below the email text box saying “Add a user without a Microsoft account”. Sure if you don’t care about privacy then you might not notice it, but it’s pretty hard to miss if you actually don’t want to use an email. Microsoft sucks but don’t spread misinformation.

An article about how to bypass the account requirement from February of this year:

It requires numerous steps to bypass the account requirement or the creation of special installation media.
Perhaps the screenshots you posted were accurate at some point or in some situations, but you need to do better research before accusing others of spreading misinformation and stop spreading it yourself.
