    was it on wireless or plugged into network? can’t skip if it detects you have internet, need to disconnect the nic and try again, just ‘ipconfig /release’ is enough to kick it and reboot, then you get , “I dont have internet” option and can make locak account.

      Never connected to the Internet. This was straight out of the box and didn’t connect to a network at all.

      Seems some computers have been updated to later versions of Windows 11 before being boxed up and these newer versions have this even if you never connect to a network.
