I'm so surprised I'm able to use my 2026 Win 11 laptop with local account.
Are you from EU perhaps?
Yes, but I doubt that's the reason. After all, I had to unplug the internet modem during initial setup 😆
That can work too but I think I read somewhere that M$ cannot push online account in EU but only in EU. So, don't know. :)
