Hello mate,

Sure, you can run Windows 10 with only using a local account if wanted.

You'll also be able to boot into safe mode without Internet. Of course, you will not be able to use anything that requires an Internet connection.
That's great, Brink. I'll try both of these today & tomorrow. I'll try running stuff, see what wants to run and what doesn't, and boot according to need. Nice to be able to have these kind of choices. Might be the reason why I'm sticking with Win10 till 2025. I'd like to also get a cheap laptop with good Wifi w/ Win11 someday just for internet purposes. (But most cheap laptops are non-Win11 and come with cheap Wifi too, don't they? Oh well. Some day.
