hey scott i did what you said in the video and when i hit enter it said it was not recognized as an internal or external command what do i do from here
This command does not turns the WiFi off, it just removes the live internet requirement during setup. Your computer should work as it is once you are in windows. Hit the windows button and type device manager. Look network adapters. Do you see a WiFi card there?
I am sorry. Sounds like you have a laptop with Windows S mode. That is a restricted, secure mode, it`s really designed to be resilient against hacking and modification. There might be a workaround still, but probably way too complicated due to the S mode Windows. You will have to create an online account, you don’t have to use yours, just make an outlook just to be able to log into windows. Make sure you write the password down. Once you are in windows, go to the app store and search for remove S mode. It will do it for free and convert the S mode to a regular windows home version.
@@Scott.The.IT.Guy. thanks , and it does indeed have S mode. The other problem is that the wifi networks don’t show up - that’s what I am actually trying to fix
If you have a modem or router with lan network ports, you can get a usb 3 or usb C to Ethernet adapter for about $10 so you can hard wire intent to the pc. The other option is turning on sharing your internet on your cell phone , using your original cable. Plug the cable into the pc, it should able to use that internet to get through the setup and download the right WiFi driver. Let me know if you need help with this.
@@Scott.The.IT.Guy. Thanks Scott .... I connected my iPhone 14 to the laptop via USB and rebooted the laptop. I get back to "let's connect you to a networK" - but don't see anything listed ..... the iphone itself is on Wifi and has the hotspot available ton connect to
For some people, you might be as dumb as I and forget that you also have to hold the “fn” key too to be able to use your function keys on some laptops.
It's Win 11 S mode. (I'm setting it up for someone's grandmother, who has a history of being victimized by scammers.) Shift+F10 just flickers the mouse cursor, it doesn't open a command prompt. Alt+Tab shows that there's no hidden command prompt. After that failed, WindowsKey+R did bring up the "Run" prompt, but it won't let me run either cmd or C:\Windows\System32\oobe\BypassNRO.cmd I examined BypassNRO.cmd on a different computer and it just pokes the registry and reboots: *reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OOBE /v BypassNRO /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f* However, "reg" won't run from the "Run" prompt, either. At this point, all I can think of to try is using an offline registry editor to make that registry change. Do you have any better ideas? _(Have I mentioned how much I _*_hate_*_ Microsoft?)_
Just downloaded the latest w11 from Microsoft and the old workaround still worked in my case. Don’t worry about the bypass, make sure you have internet and just proceed with the setup. Sign in with “abc@abc.com enter a random password. “ oops something went wrong “ if it takes you back to the same sign in window just do it one more time , it passed me over to least create a local account.
@@Scott.The.IT.Guy., were you telling it that the fake email address is an existing windows account, or were you telling it to *_create_* a windows account with that fake email address?
@@ncdave4life Do not create a new account. Just use the " dummy" account to trigger the " oops someting went wrong " Microsoft error message. that will result to letting you create a local account .
No problem. If you have neither Wi-Fi nor hard wired connection, we can do two things. Do you have a cell phone with a USB cable? If you do, please turn the hotspot on, plug the USB cable into the computer. Another option is installing a network card driver during windows installation VIA USB drive. (I can also help you with that if the phone hotspot is not an option.
@@user-ie8iv7di2v That was actually pretty smart, you forgot to mention that you are a pro :) I have a USB C and a USB 3 to network as well, pretty sure I am the only one at work who has it.
@@MountainisFullofDragons What version of windows are you trying to install? I just did this on a brand new Win11 pro install from MS and it worked . IF you just want to create a local account without an email do this . Connect to the network, make sure you have internet and just proceed with the setup. Sign in with “abc@abc.com enter a random password, it will say “ Oops, something went wrong “ and wwill let you create create a local account.
@Scott.The.IT.Guy. i think it was the latest windows 11 update, but I said screw it and went to windows 10. Windows 10 has that "I don't have internet" message
@@MountainisFullofDragons This thing is a hit or miss for some reason, I deployed the latest version of W11 many times just this week alone and had no issues. If you have W10 installed already, head over to Microsoft and download the W11 iso: www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11 Don’t worry about the update assistant, open the iso and do an in-place upgrade, where you select to keep your data and applications as it is during the upgrade. It works 99.9% of the time without any issues.
you are a freaking god, thank you!
You're welcome!
why windows doesn't automatically have that option available is absolutely ridiculous
100% agree!
Thanks dude
Happy to help
Your rock!!
Thanks! Glad it worked!
hey scott i did what you said in the video and when i hit enter it said it was not recognized as an internal or external command what do i do from here
Is this a windows S mode pc?
i did this and it worked but how to i turn it back on so i can connect to wireless lan

Hit the windows button and type device manager.
Look network adapters.

When I try to run the command prompt - it says In this Mode, Windows can Only Run Verified Apps/ Any ideas? Thanks!

@@powerlifter1450 Do you have access to another PC and a thumb drive? Also do you know what the model number on the machine?
You da man!
Glad it worked! Thanks!
You are a godsend
Glad it helped!
Dude thank you so much
Happy to help!

Good point! Thanks for mentioning it!
Fn+Shift+F10 for laptops
Thanks!
Hey Scott again sorry loving ur vids are u sure I don’t need help in leveling up your channel I do have some contacts
Thanks again! I don’t have as much time as I would(should) like to have for the channel, but I think in general things are going well.
thank you!!!!
You're welcome!
Worked for me awesome thanks🎉
Glad it helped
@@Scott.The.IT.Guy. you are amazing bro
Shift-F10 does not bring up a command line, for me.
What version of windows are you installing? Do you what is the build number? If it’s a laptop, you might have to press the FN key as well.
It's Win 11 S mode. (I'm setting it up for someone's grandmother, who has a history of being victimized by scammers.)
Shift+F10 just flickers the mouse cursor, it doesn't open a command prompt. Alt+Tab shows that there's no hidden command prompt.

My issue didnt resolve.
What’s the issue exactly? Are you just trying to create a local account without using or creating an email account or something else?
The "I dont have internet" button is still missing
