    Just like opting out of using a Microsoft account to log into windows, the grips will get tighter and tighter over time until you are forced to use butt hole ID to unlock your screen.

      While I very much dislike that too, it’s very easy to opt out. Just use Windows Pro, Enterprise, or education.

        I haven’t used windows home in decades, I deal with new installs of pro/enterprise all the time. You have to jump hoops now to create a local account.

          Nah, you just select domain join. I did that a few weeks ago on a Win 11 enterprise install.

          But if you deal with new installs “all the time” you should really consider automating the setup and domain joining, instead of manually creating local accounts and then domain joining.
