Microsoft has opted to need internet access during the first device setup for Pro versions of the Windows 11 2022 Update, which is disappointing. If you’re setting up a device for personal use, you’ll also need a Microsoft account. This was first seen with Windows 11 Home editions, and many will be irritated to see Microsoft now requiring it for Pro versions.
If your device is available and compatible, you may download the Windows 11 2022 Update immediately from Windows Update by going to Settings > Windows Update and checking for updates.
