We got a new Prebuilt Alienware aurora r14 being delivered today. How does the microsoft windows set up work, will it come with the OS pre-installed and all i do is have to create an account? Will it ask for a license upon boot? Im just worried about what hiccups might come into play when i unbox it. Please help
You'll need to create a "Microsoft account".
BUT.....
This can literally be any email address. It does NOT have to be '
true@microsoft.com" or
True@outlook.com.
Mine is literally a little used gmail address.
Yours could be ANY email address you wish to use.
Also, you do NOT have to use that account after that.
On all my systems, I have the initial MS account (gmail address0.
Then, a Local Admin and Local Standard user.
I use the MS account ONLY if I need something from the store, or for any OS licensing issues.
I do NOT use that for daily ops.
