Does Windows 10 still wants to logon with a Microsoft account instead of a local account? If yes, is there a way to workaround this?
1 Answer
Yes, Microsoft still wants to push the usage of a Microsoft account in Windows 10.
In the OOBE phase you get the option to sign in with a Microsoft Account.
But you can click on Skip this step
and in the nest step you can create a local account:
In Who is going to use this PC?
enter the preferred username, now enter your password twice and a hint to not forget it.
That is all and a 1 step lower compared to Windows 8.1.

I believe this has changed slightly in the final versions of Windows-10, but is essentially the same. Jul 28, 2015 at 18:13

1@ErikFunkenbusch no, I just installed the RTM again and took the screenshots again. In the preview it looked different. Today a lot of users will ask this, Jul 29, 2015 at 4:11
