Microsoft fucking sucks, but I want people to know ways around stuff so they aren’t wasting time and money if they don’t have to.

What is the way around Microsoft accounts during 10/11 setup?

10: put no@thankyou.com as the email and whatever the fuck you want as a password. It'll give you an error then let you proceed with local setup. That's if it forces you to connect to the Internet. I prefer saying I don't have Internet and choose the limited setup option.
