== Create first account as a local account rather than a Microsoft account ==
Many help articles out there will tell you that you just need to connect to the internet, then disconnect when you get the license agreement page. This does not appear to work anymore.

2. Run `oobe\bypassnro`

5. Okay *now* you'll get the screen to set up a local account.
