    Until they remove checking that reg key from all versions other than maybe enterprise. If they decide that running windows requires an MS online account, they can keep bumping up the difficulty of running it without whenever they want.

      They are keeping around so many deprecated features for internal use and whatnot, I would be surprised if they did remove this registry check.

      Until Windows 12 is released, you can always use an old ISO and then update to the newest version.
