    It is under sign in option when you get to it then choose domain join. This get you to create a local account. Just did this to 5 new computers last week.

      And it still tries to convince you to go MS account with it’s, “even better, create a Microsoft account” link that’s conveniently located where the Next button should be.

        All I know is i been doing this for 6 months upgrading companies from win 10 to 11. I am sure you’re not doing something wrong.

          Upgrades are a different process than a brand new install. Going from 10 to 11 on a Pro is an easy process. Long, as in a couple hours, but easy. The post is talking about brand new installs (the OOTB experience).

            The last 5 msi laptop OOTB have been able to create local accounts as a mean to join to domain. The 4 Dell i did the week before was able to do the same.

              Yes. Windows Pro. They’re talking about Home OOTB. And in pro, even though you still can (for now), they keep nagging you about the ms account.
