Bypass NRO – no longer

Microsoft removed or disabled the bypassnro script in recent Windows 11 updates. Since you are using Windows 11 Pro, you can easily bypass this by choosing “Set up for work or school”, clicking “Sign-in options”, and selecting “Domain join instead” to create a local offline account.

Alternative Workarounds

If the Pro domain-join trick does not appear or you are disconnected from the network, try these active command-line methods:

• The Local-Only Command: Press Shift + F10 at the account screen to open Command Prompt, type `“start ms-cxh:localonly”, as noted by NTLite Community, and press Enter.
• Manual Registry Addition: Open Command Prompt via Shift + F10, type <Quote>“reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OOBE /v BypassNRO /t REG_DWORD /d 1”</Quote>, press Enter, then type shutdown /r /t 0` to reboot.
• Direct Net User Method: Open Command Prompt (Shift + F10), disconnect your internet, and type:
  • net.exe user 'username' 'password' /add
  • net.exe localgroup Administrators 'username' /add
  • cd oobe then msoobe.exe && shutdown.exe -r
