Skip "Sign in to your Microsoft account" (Windows 8.1 Setup)
- by noloader
I have an RT tablet and updated it to Windows 8.1. The update basically performs the new PC setup.
I can't get past the "Sign into your Microsoft Account". Clicking "Next" does not allow me to proceed (and prompts me for an email address).
Clicking "Don't have an account" does nothing because its not linked.
The other two options are "Create an account" a "Privacy statement". I don't want to create an account, and I'm not interested in their perverted terms of service for an account.
In Windows 8.0, we were given the option to use local authentication.
How do I bypass this feature?
