Summary:
In 2022, factory minicomputers come pre-installed with the latest Windows 11 22H2 system. Initially, setting up a new computer or reinstalling the system requires network connectivity before logging into the Microsoft account to smoothly access the desktop. However, in earlier versions of Windows 11 22H2, skipping network setup was possible. From version 22H2 onwards, skipping network setup is no longer an option. Today, we'll discuss a method to bypass network setup and log in to your Microsoft account on the Windows 11 22H2 system.
Solution Steps:
- When booting up a new computer with the latest Windows 11 22H2 version, note that skipping networking isn't possible initially. Start by not connecting to any network (neither wired nor wireless). When the interface shown in Figure 1-1 appears, press the Shift + F10 keys on your keyboard to open the command line program. (If your keyboard requires it, press Fn+Shift+F10).
2. In the command line interface, type "OOBE\BYPASSNRO" and then press Enter. The computer will automatically reboot. After the reboot, you'll see an option labeled "I don't have internet." Click on this option to bypass the internet setup and access the system desktop.
