How to install Windows 11 the way you want (and bypass Microsoft's restrictions)
Briefly

Microsoft's strict hardware requirements and local account challenges make upgrading to Windows 11 difficult, but tools like Rufus offer potential workarounds.
Using Rufus, users can bypass various restrictions, allowing them to install Windows 11 on incompatible hardware and choose a local account setup easily.
To use Rufus, download the Windows 11 ISO from Microsoft, then use a USB drive to create a bootable installation that evades restrictions.
Upgrades preserve your current account type, but fresh installs with Rufus allow you to set up a local account, offering a stealthier installation option.
