Learn how to create a local account in Windows 11 with our simplified setup process by logging into your personal PC without using a Microsoft account.
Yeah, that sucks. I’m not much of a gamer myself. I know there are workarounds, but I probably would stay with Windows for games too if that was the case.
If you don’t want a Microsoft account, at this point you should really consider switching to Linux.
I have a Microsoft account for my Xbox and for certifications but I have zero intention of ever using it to login to Windows.
Fair point but my games only run on windows.
Try a little Proton. There’s also Lutris. There hasn’t been a game I own that I haven’t been able to play on Linux.
Proton is amazing as long as you don’t get bit by anticheat, which thankfully is getting better.
Thankfully I don’t play many games with anticheat so almost the entirety of my game library runs on my Linux install.
Unfortunately, two of my most played games (R6:Siege and Cod MW2) can’t run on linux, and last time I checked Visual Studio also.
Don’t play shit games.
No Linux, no buyno.
visual studio is native on linux
Same I just had this conversation last week with a coworker
Subnautica multiplayer mod nitrox :( Ik its a reach to support but its literally the only thing holding me to windows
Yeah, that sucks. I’m not much of a gamer myself. I know there are workarounds, but I probably would stay with Windows for games too if that was the case.
I’ll probably install a second SSD for Linux so I can dual boot for development.

Humorous, but I don’t think that really applies here.
