Set up Windows 11 without internet - oobe\bypassnro

Ok, now on Insider builds you can't get it past anymore by killing OOBE Connection Flow. This is just nonsense.

How are we supposed to set up PCs that don't have any Wi-Fi/Ethernet drivers in the first place?

When killing Connection Flow you just get this message:

Here is the solution:

Open cmd with Shift + F10 and type OOBE\BYPASSNRO.

Your computer will restart and now you will have the "I don't have Internet" option.

No need to thank me.

    Since according to AveYo (thanks for this) this is only temporarily integrated into Windows 11 by Microsoft, one can assume that this command will not work for much longer. I truly hope it remains.

    Hi Johnny,

    You assumed correctly, it doesn't work anymore on build 25120.1010

    It worked for me on 25120.1000 using Official ISO, I could not make an ISO for 25120.1010 any way I tried from dump and wimlib. Always came out 25120.1000 even with v80.

    Regards,

    Yes, it worked for me too on 25120.1000 but not on .1010

    Try again, I made one from the same source about 2 hours ago.

    I tried a download again an hour ago for 25120.1010 but keeps getting errors on download.

    While I downloaded 25120.1000 yesterday and built the ISO without any issues.

    Finally, after several retries the download for 25120.1010 completed, it is now building the ISO.

    We'll see how this goes today. 😎

    I know, you told us already on my thread.

    With all due respect, please stop posting about this topic on multiple threads. You have your own thread, then you posted on mine and now you are repeating yourself here. 😒
