    This works because there is a bypassnro.bat file in the oobe directory, which modifies the relevant registry entries. If it gets removed, you’ll need to find its contents online and type them into the command prompt manually.

    Or use this as an opportunity to learn Linux. It’s been very usable for a while. If you’re confused by distro selection, try Mint Cinnamon first.

      or copy it to a usb drive; last time i checked external drives will automatically map to the next available drive letter, so you could just plug one in and type D:\bypassnro

      that is assuming the script doesnt use relative paths or have any checks against doing this
