    Those steps are insane and convoluted. Prolly should just get to Linux.

      You mean the annoying operating system where you have to follow convoluted instructions, type random commands into the terminal in order to do something simple, like install the operating system?

      *reads article*

      Oh, that’s Windows now

      These instructions were a hell of a lot easier than trying to get my GPU, audio, bluetooth and several other things working on my machine when I tried several different Linux distros.

      Might be building off the fact that Microsoft is removing the bypassnro script.
      https://windowsforum.com/threads/microsoft-removes-bypassnro-cmd-a-new-era-for-local-accounts-in-windows-11.358676/

      I presume the registry key still works.

      But anyone installing windows without using an unattended.xml file is missing out.
      I’ve used this, and it was super easy.
