From bits I've found googling I think what I'm proposing to do is possible but I was hoping there might be some experience on here.

I'm setting up a PC for a family member (new build) and would like to get as much setup done at home before taking it to them. I've got a retail key so no transfer issues there.

What I don't want to do is get my Microsoft account muddled into the mix, so I was going to install W11 using the shift+f10/bypassnro approach and then convert the local account to a Microsoft one when I hand the machine over.

Any reason not to do this or any reason I can't?

Thanks in advance.
