    Not anymore with pro, iirc. It worked longer than home but they changed that, I think. Dunno for enterprise.

      This takes a few minutes to test, so I did.

      TLDR: You can do it in Win11 Pro at least, but the interface tries really hard to steer you into a Microsoft account.

      Used the Windows image tool at https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11

      This created me a 23H2 ISO

      Created a VM in VMWare Workstation and started setup

      When asked for the key, I chose “I don’t have a product key”

      When asked for version, I chose “Windows 11 Pro”

      After the restart, during OOBE, it asks me how I would like to setup, I chose “work or school”

      When asked to sign-in to Microsoft, I chose “Sign-in options”

      I then chose to “Domain join instead”

      I’m then asked to create a new standard user

        Just use Rufus to make the USB… I mean, it’s fairly simple to use it, and it asks you IF you give it a Windows ISO if you’d like to skip these things. There are other tweaks as well, like no BitLocker by default.
