Is that possible on Windows 11?
Yes. I had to do that on my latest reinstall. I had to create a local account after the install and log out of my MS account. It really tried to force backups, which is super annoying.
Is it still possible to install Winndows 11 without network connection? It was the optimal solution for local account Windows back in the day.
I quickly tried, but I gave up as I just needed the install done. It didn't occur to me to pull the network cable as that may have worked. If I remember what I was reading at the time correctly, it will take a bit for the option to show to do an offline install if you don't have a network connection. (I could be completely wrong on that! It's been a couple of months already.)
