  Bought my wife a big old man made diamond necklace in the early 2000s from an ad in Popular Science. She was aware but loved it. She especially liked when other women would ask her if she was afraid to wear it out, for fear of losing it. Best $70 I spent.

  It is. My vac ban is currently 4990 days old.

  Sorry, missed your reply. I run the setup for Windows on a lot of computers. Last time I tried that command it wasn’t working. I used to be able to start the setup and once you got to the point of needing to sign in to a Microsoft account you could skip it. They removed that. Then this command you are talking about worked for a bit. Then removing the ethernet cable worked for a while, Microsoft closed that too. Currently I connect the machines to a network and attempt to log into an account, but mistype the password. This will give an error and allow a local account. Unfortunately these are machines for sale, so I can’t use a Microsoft account like they want. It’s a whole “thing”. However, if it’s your own machine, use Rufus to create a boot disk that will bypass the Microsoft account requirement.

  Why would they block it? Because they want everyone to use a Microsoft account, and they have been getting more and more aggressive about it.

  Windows 10 has this same screen, just a bit different looking. You turn off this notification in the settings menu.

  Go to Settings > System > Notifications. Turn off the last three check boxes. This screen won’t come back.

  I believe this method was blocked. But it’s also not what the screen shot is. This is an update screen.
