# Windows
|
|
|
|
[Windows](https://windows.com/) is an operating system developed by
|
|
[Microsoft](https://www.microsoft.com/).
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
The files and programs needed for the installation of Windows 11 are available on the
|
|
[Windows website](https://www.microsoft.com/de-de/software-download/windows11).
|
|
|
|
### Bypass Network Setup During Installation
|
|
|
|
For Windows 10 to bypass the setup of a network during the installation process `Shift` and `F10`
|
|
need to be pressed.
|
|
By putting in `oobe/bypassnro` into the command line and pressing `Enter` the computer will restart
|
|
and will display an option to bypass the network setup during the corresponding step.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
This section addresses the usage of Windows.
|
|
|
|
### Disable Telemetry
|
|
|
|
Windows 10 has a `Windows Compatibility Telemetry` process running in the
|
|
background.
|
|
To disable it follow this
|
|
[guide](https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-performance/permanently-disabling-windows-compatibility/6bf71583-81b0-4a74-ae2e-8fd73305aad1):
|
|
|
|
- Start the `Task Scheduler`
|
|
- In the `Task Scheduler` navigate to the path
|
|
`Task Scheduler Library\Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience`
|
|
- Look for the `Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser` on the `Application Experience`
|
|
folder, right-click it and select `Disable`.
|
|
|
|
### Make Windows Compatible with UTC
|
|
|
|
Making Windows 10 use UTC can be useful for dual-boot systems that also feature
|
|
[Linux-based operating systems](/wiki/linux.md).
|
|
This can be done by running the following command in the Windows command prompt.
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation" /v RealTimeIsUniversal /d 1 /t REG_DWORD /f
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Disabling of UTC time is done with the same command with a `0` instead of a `1`.
|
|
|
|
### Activating Windows
|
|
|
|
For the activation of a windows system an activation key is needed.
|
|
Alternatively the Microsoft Activation Script (MAS) can be used for this and also for activating
|
|
Microsoft Office. It not only can activate Windows Home but also Windows Pro and supports Extended
|
|
Security Updates (ESU).
|
|
Please note that this method of activating Windows or other Microsoft software is not legal in all
|
|
countries and its legality should be checked before usage.
|
|
If it is legal to run the following command can be called inside PowerShell.
|
|
|
|
```ps
|
|
irm https://get.activated.win | iex
|
|
```
