Skip using a Microsoft account<\/h2>\n<p>Microsoft has joined the club with Apple and Google to push online accounts on its operating system. That means you must create and log in with a Microsoft account to use Windows 11, and Microsoft is slowly curbing all the hacks you could have utilized to bypass the online account requirement until now.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neowin.net\/news\/bypass-microsoft-account-requirement-when-setting-up-windows-11-with-internet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Neowin<\/a> reported a simple hack that involves you using a blacklisted email address like <code>no@thankyou.com<\/code> to register for the online account. Windows Setup gives an error and skips creating an online account as an extra bonus.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/fake-email-skip-online-account.png\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" alt=\"Use a blacklisted email to skip creating an online account\"><\/figure>\n<p>If the above hack fails, or you are installing Windows 11 22H2, <a href=\"https:\/\/rufus.ie\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rufus<\/a> is another hack you can try. Create a bootable drive using Rufus, and you will be able to install Windows 11 22H2 without creating a Microsoft account. As simple as that!<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"2\">2. Create a local account<\/h2>\n<p>If the above hacks get curbed by Microsoft in the future, there is another bypass trick for you. You can create an online temporary account using a <a href=\"\/blog\/anonymous-email-providers\/\">temporary email provider<\/a>. After logging in with the temporary online account in Windows 11, you can create a local administrator account by following these steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open <strong>Settings<\/strong> and go to <strong>Accounts<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Other users<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/add-account-win11.png\" width=\"1024\" height=\"647\" alt=\"Add an account in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<li>Click <strong>Add account<\/strong> &gt; <strong>I don\u2019t have this person\u2019s sign-in information<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/create-local-account-win11.png\" width=\"1024\" height=\"685\" alt=\"Create a local account in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<li>Click <strong>Add a user without a Microsoft account<\/strong> and follow instructions.<\/li>\n<li>Click the new user under <strong>Other users<\/strong> and click <strong>Change account type<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/change-account-type-win11.png\" width=\"1024\" height=\"645\" alt=\"Change account type in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<li>Select <strong>Administrator<\/strong> under <strong>Account type<\/strong> and click <strong>OK<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Finally, log in to the new account and delete the old one by going to <strong>Settings<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Accounts<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Other users<\/strong>, expanding the old user, and clicking <strong>Remove<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/settings-remove-user-win11.png\" width=\"1081\" height=\"380\" alt=\"Remove a user in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"3\">3. Utilize \u2018Do Not Disturb\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>Do Not Disturb and Focus (previously known as \u201cFocus Mode\u201d) got improved in Windows 11. You can <strong>set up rules to auto-enable the \u2018Do not Disturb\u2019<\/strong> mode. For example, you can enable it during work hours to better focus on your work.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, you can configure priority notifications to enable specific apps, calls, and reminders to bypass do not disturb mode and send you notifications, like Android and iOS. You can access both upon clicking the clock icon in the Taskbar.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/dnd-and-focus-win11.png\" width=\"765\" height=\"392\" alt=\"DND and Focus options in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"4\">4. Configure DND and Focus<\/h2>\n<p>Here\u2019s how you can configure Do Not Disturb, priority notifications, and Focus:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open <strong>Settings<\/strong> and go to <strong>System<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Notifications<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>On this screen, you can click on individual options to configure them:<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/configure-notifications-win11.png\" width=\"1200\" height=\"385\" alt=\"Configure notifications in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<li>Expand <strong>Turn on do not disturb automatically<\/strong> and configure options to auto-enable DND.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/auto-enable-dnd-win11.png\" width=\"1055\" height=\"691\" alt=\"Auto-enable DND in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<li>Click <strong>Set priority notifications<\/strong> and configure options for priority notifications.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/priority-notifications-win11.png\" width=\"1071\" height=\"722\" alt=\"Set priority notifications in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<li>Click <strong>Focus<\/strong> and configure options for Focus (aka Focus Mode).<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/configure-focus-win11.png\" width=\"1061\" height=\"533\" alt=\"Configure Focus options in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"5\">5. Configure the Start menu<\/h2>\n<p>Microsoft is trying hard at bringing an intuitive Start menu, however, without much luck. Most people, including me, have a love-hate relationship with the Start menu (and the Start screen) starting from <a href=\"\/blog\/windows-8-new-features-you-will-love\/\">Windows 8<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, Windows does offer some customization options for the Start menu, which got better with Windows 11 22H2. Here\u2019s how to tweak it:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open <strong>Settings<\/strong> and go to <strong>Personalization<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Start<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Configure its layout and the apps and items visible in the Start menu.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/personalize-start-menu-win11.png\" width=\"1036\" height=\"739\" alt=\"Configure the Start menu in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<li> Click <strong>Folders<\/strong> on this screen to customize the folders shown alongside the Power button in the bottom-right corner of the Start menu.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/personalize-start-menu-folders.png\" width=\"1050\" height=\"797\" alt=\"Configure the Start menu folders in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<\/ol>\n<p>For instance, I have the <strong>Default<\/strong> layout and default settings along with <strong>a bunch of folders<\/strong> enabled, so the Start menu on my test system looks like below:<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/start-menu-with-folders.png\" width=\"666\" height=\"796\" alt=\"Start menu with folders in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"6\">6. Disable the Widgets panel<\/h2>\n<p>Windows 11 introduced <strong>Widgets panel that shows web-based widgets<\/strong> such as weather, stock market updates, sports news, etc. However, it only works if are you logged in to a Microsoft account on Windows 11. As I told above, Microsoft is trying its best to push you to use an online account, and this is one evidence.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/widgtes-panel-win11.png\" width=\"1200\" height=\"930\" alt=\"Widgets panel works with a Microsoft account\"><\/figure>\n\n<p>If you are a fan of using a local account in Windows due to any reason, you will not be happy with the Widgets. For instance, I do not need or use an online account benefits on my system though I\u2019d have enjoyed Widgets. That said, I disabled the Widgets panel as disabling it <strong>minimized memory usage<\/strong> on my system.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever be the reason, you can disable the Widgets panel using these steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Press <span class=\"key\">Win<\/span> + <span class=\"key\">R<\/span> to see the Run dialog box.<\/li>\n<li>Type <code>gpedit.msc<\/code>, and press <span class=\"key\">Enter<\/span> to open the Group Policy Editor.<\/li>\n<li>Under <strong>Computer Configuration<\/strong>, go to <strong>Administrative Templates<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Windows Components<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Widgets<\/strong> to check policies for Widgets.<\/li>\n<li>Double-click <strong>Allow widgets<\/strong> on the right, click <strong>Disable<\/strong>, then click <strong>OK<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/disable-widgets-win11.png\" width=\"1102\" height=\"820\" alt=\"Disable the Widgets panel in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"7\">7. Enable Voice Access<\/h2>\n<p>Voice Access is a super handy feature \u2014 like Microsoft Cortana \u2014 that allows you to control your Windows PC using your voice. You can open and switch between apps, dictate emails, browse the Internet, etc. Voice Access \u201cleverages <strong>modern, on-device speech recognition to recognize speech accurately<\/strong> and is supported without an internet connection,\u201d according to Microsoft.<\/p>\n<p>That means Voice Access uses offline machine learning. Here\u2019s how to use it:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open <strong>Settings<\/strong> and go to <strong>Accessibility<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Speech<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Toggle on the option named <strong>Voice access<\/strong>. If you are planning to use this feature frequently, click <strong>Start voice access after you sign in to your PC<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/enable-voice-access-win11.png\" width=\"1052\" height=\"764\" alt=\"Enable Voice Access in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<li>Follow the instructions on the <strong>Set up your mic for voice access<\/strong> screen.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/set-up-voice-access-win11.png\" width=\"1200\" height=\"851\" alt=\"Enable Voice Access in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"8\">8. Enable Live Captions<\/h2>\n<p>Live Captions is an accessibility feature inspired from a same-named feature in Android OS for Google Pixels. Captions are <strong>auto-generated from all\n  audio content<\/strong> including the incoming audio from your microphone, interestingly.<\/p>\n<p>This last feature can help during in-person conversations or meetings. However, Live Captions is only supported for content in English (U.S.) for the moment.<\/p>\n<p>Below are the steps to enable Live Captions. You need to download its language files, so you must continue when asked to download them by Windows 11.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open <strong>Settings<\/strong> and go to <strong>Accessibility<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Captions<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Toggle on the option named <strong>Live captions<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/enable-live-captions-win11.png\" width=\"1055\" height=\"728\" alt=\"Enable Live Captions in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<li>Thereafter, you can click <span class=\"key\">Win<\/span> + <span class=\"key\">Ctrl<\/span> + <span class=\"key\">L<\/span> to use Live Captions.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"9\">9. Enable the game optimizations<\/h2>\n<p>Windows 11 22H2 introduced some under-the-hood optimizations for games. This feature improves latency and unlocks other gaming features like Auto High Dynamic Range (HDR) and Variable Refresh Rate (VRR). Here\u2019s how to enable it:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open <strong>Settings<\/strong> and go to <strong>Display<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Graphics<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Default graphics settings<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Toggle on the option named <strong>Optimizations for windowed games<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/default-graphics-settings-win11.png\" width=\"852\" height=\"404\" alt=\"Default graphics settings in Windows 11\"><\/figure>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"10\">10. Enable Efficiency mode for apps<\/h2>\n<p>Microsoft redesigned the Task Manager and enhanced some of its less-known but handy features, making it more helpful than ever. One of these features is Efficiency mode (previously known as \u201cEco mode\u201d) that lets you limit an app\u2019s resources if you find it be consuming more than average or necessary resources.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how you can put an app into the Efficiency mode on Windows 11:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Press <span class=\"key\">Win<\/span> + <span class=\"key\">X<\/span> and select <strong>Task Manager<\/strong> from the context menu.<\/li>\n<li>Select <strong>Processes<\/strong> option from the left menu to see the running processes.<\/li>\n<li>Right-click any process and click <strong>Efficiency mode<\/strong> to put it into the same.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/task-manager-efficiency-mode.png\" width=\"1132\" height=\"929\" alt=\"Put an app into the Efficiency mode\"><\/figure>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"11\">11. Remove bloatware or unwanted apps<\/h2>\n<p>Last but important, you may wish to remove bloatware or unwanted apps from your system. The reason being Microsoft has been pushing <strong>more default apps (aka bloatware) with Windows<\/strong> starting with Windows 8 than ever before in the history of Windows OSs. Thankfully, O&O AppBuster can remove them.<\/p>\n<p>Follow these steps to remove apps like Windows Clock, Windows Maps, etc.:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oo-software.com\/en\/ooappbuster\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.oo-software.com\/en\/ooappbuster<\/a> in a web browser.<\/li>\n<li>Click <strong>Download<\/strong> near right-top corner of the page and open the file.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/oo-appbuster-win11-apps.png\" width=\"1200\" height=\"971\" alt=\"Remove bloatware using O&O AppBuster\"><\/figure>\n<li>Select apps you want to remove and click <strong>Remove<\/strong> near top-right corner. For example, I selected 3D Viewer and Groove Music in this screenshot.<\/li>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/windows-11-tips-tricks\/oo-appbuster-remove-apps.jpg\" width=\"1200\" height=\"971\" alt=\"Remove bloatware using O&O AppBuster\"><\/figure>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Though Windows 11 is relatively new, Microsoft is already introducing a variety of ground-breaking changes including the mandatory use of online accounts in Windows 11. Though it makes sense for mobile devices like smartphones and tablets, <strong>many people still prefer a local account<\/strong> on their home computers.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, Windows 11 brings many exciting features. The most notable is the new design system dubbed \u201cFluent Design\u201d though there are new apps and more features as well. And I hope the tips and tricks in this guide will help you make most out of everything in Windows 11 22H2.
