How to Install and Set Up Windows 11 Without an Internet Connection

Windows 11 requires you to sign in with a Microsoft account to finish setting up your new computer. However, if you don't have an active internet connection or want to use a local user account, you can follow these methods to set up Windows 11.

1. Bypass Out-of-Box Experience (OOBE) Internet Requirement

You can bypass the Let's connect you to a network screen using the OOBE BYPASSNRO command in Command Prompt. When executed, it runs an existing CMD script, bypassnro.cmd, stored in the System32 folder to modify the Windows registry. This modification allows you to complete the Windows 11 setup without an internet connection. To do this:

1. Boot your computer with the Windows installation media. Skip to Step 6 below if you are already on the Let's connect you to a network screen.
2. When the Windows Setup dialog appears, select your preferred language, time, and keyboard input layout and click Next. Then, click Install Now.
3. Enter your product key to activate Windows 11. If you don't have a product key, click the I don't have a product key link in the bottom-right corner. If you're upgrading from Windows 10 or an older version of Windows 11, the OS will automatically recognize and validate the Windows product key linked to your computer's hardware.
4. Next, if prompted, select the edition of Windows 11 you want to install. Check the box to accept terms and click Next. Then, select Custom: Install Windows Only (Advanced).
5. Select the installation drive and click Next. Wait for Windows to finish installation and restart your computer. In the setup screen, select your region and keyboard layout.
6. Once in the Let's connect you to a network screen, press Shift + F10 to launch the Command Prompt.
7. In the Command Prompt window, type the following command and press Enter:

   <code class="hljs ">OOBE\BYPASSNRO</code> 

8. Now, your system will restart and relaunch the OOBE dialog. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup. When you reach the Let's connect you to a network screen, click I don't have Internet.
9. Next, click Continue with limited setup. Then, accept the license agreement and proceed to create your local user account.

Also, make sure to add security questions. This will help you recover your local user account in case you forget your password. Once done, follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup.

2. End the Network Connection Flow Process Using Task Manager

You can bypass the "let's connect you to a network" screen by ending the oobenetworkconnectionflow.exe process. Since you already have Windows 11 installed at this stage, you can launch the Task Manager on top of your setup wizard using Command Prompt and kill the process.

This method may not always work as new Windows updates often patch such workarounds.

1. Dengan mengandaikan anda berada dalam skrin Mari sambungkan anda ke rangkaian, tekan Shift + F10 untuk melancarkan Prompt Perintah.
2. Dalam tetingkap Command Prompt, taip taskmgr dan tekan Enter untuk melancarkan Pengurus Tugas. Sebagai alternatif, anda boleh menekan Ctrl + Shift + Esc untuk melancarkannya.
3. Klik Butiran Lagi untuk membuka Pengurus Tugas dalam paparan penuh.
4. Pergi ke tab Proses dan gunakan bar carian dalam Pengurus Tugas untuk mencari proses Aliran Sambungan Rangkaian.
5. Pilih proses Aliran Sambungan Rangkaian dan kemudian klik butang Tamat tugas. Tunggu proses tamat, dan kemudian tutup Pengurus Tugas.
6. Taip keluar dalam Prompt Perintah dan tekan kekunci Enter.
