I am using the Enterprise version, so possibly that’s the difference.
Here’s a link to the Enterprise version: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-windows-enterprise-technical-preview *From:* [email protected] [mailto: [email protected]] *On Behalf Of *Jim Mediger *Sent:* Tuesday, February 3, 2015 12:27 PM *To:* [email protected] *Subject:* RE: [NTSysADM] Windows 10 Account Settings I believe if you download the Enterprise version it is not required. Some apps will prompt you for it and you have to login to download it. *From:* [email protected] [ mailto:[email protected] <[email protected]>] *On Behalf Of *Charles F Sullivan *Sent:* Tuesday, February 03, 2015 11:21 AM *To:* [email protected] *Subject:* RE: [NTSysADM] Windows 10 Account Settings I could have sworn I avoided it the same way as in 8.1. Whether it’s changed or not, I believe you will get the option to create a local one if you choose the right option to move past the screen that first prompts you to use an MS account. Then on the next screen near the bottom (you may need to scroll) there is something to click on to create a local account. (Sorry it’s so vague, but I haven’t done it enough times.) *From:* [email protected] [mailto: [email protected]] *On Behalf Of *D R *Sent:* Tuesday, February 3, 2015 11:39 AM *To:* [email protected] *Subject:* [NTSysADM] Windows 10 Account Settings Question: In Windows 8/8.1 I could setup a computer without having to use a Microsoft Account, as this was an option. But I do not see that same option in the Windows 10 Pre-Release. Is there a way around this so that I don't have to register a new account to Microsoft but just create a local account? -- Daniel Rodriguez [email protected] **Warning** Any technical data is or may be controlled under the U.S. International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and may not be exported, released, or disclosed to foreign nationals without proper authorization by the U.S. Department of State.” “CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This electronic transmission, its contents and any attachments (hereinafter referred to collectively as “transmission”) are confidential and are solely directed to, and intended for, the named addressee(s) only.
