Windows 10 Install Domain Join Instead

Enter the domain name and click next.

Windows 10 install domain join instead. Hopefully this article was able to help you join your windows 10 pc to a domain. Or maybe just login with the hidden local administrator account. As previously said if you have windows 10 pro use the join domain option in the bottom left corner of the login screen on windows 10 home you are forced to install it without a network connection to get the possibility to create a local account.

During windows 10 install i d like to join my company s active directory domain instead of adding a new local user. On windows 10 professional there s reportedly a domain join instead option that will create a local user account.

So i installed windows 10 1809 on a laptop from our microsoft volume license and this time i thought why not connect to the internet during the install. If you know of another way please do share them with us in the comments below. If you don t see this option for some reason don t worry the same disconnect from the internet trick that works on windows 10 home also works on windows 10 professional.

You should have the correct domain. Then on the restart notice click ok. Windows 10 home doesn t have this option at all.

When you return to system properties click close. So i try using my microsoft account it kept telling. It will take sometime to join windows 10 to domain.

During the install i am asked if this is a personal or organizational computer. Bad move after that it will not let me create a local account. Join a windows 10 pc or device to a domain on the windows 10 pc go tosettings system about then click join a domain.
