Easy if you have a Microsoft account. I don't.

    I don't understand this. I've had two win 11 installations over about 2 years and I've never had a Microsoft account or had to log in to one. Am I doing something wrong?

    Nah you are using it correctly. I would advise everyone to avoid the Microsoft store, I would advise everyone to avoid the play store and app store as well, but Apple showed Google and Microsoft that they can make a lot of money locking people into using them

    You can get around the account requirement with one or two commands during the install. Should be trivial for anyone capable of running Linux

    I was trying to explain to someone why I used Linux and their reasoning for not wanting to was because they didnt want to have to input commands. I told them how I don't have to input any commands to get Linux installed but do to get windows installed and they didnt believe me
