Local accounts only work with a really convoluted method during install, involving physically disconnecting your Ethernet cable and running a command in the OOBE.

you don't need to do anything convoluted or remove your internet connection, you just need to run a single command before doing anything (which will cause your oc to reboot and the offline option to unlock)

Huh. The guide I read said you had to run the command then disconnect the internet at a certain point in the installation. Thanks!

it worked for me even with an internet connection, but you probably should still disconnect the internet while installing windows, you'll get less bloatware
