I wouldn't even bother trying, the functionality is so impaired. If you really want offline go Linux

Out of the 5 people I've f2f discussed this with in recent months, 3 are now running Mint and all 3 were happy with it last I checked in.
Maybe it actually is time...

It's very humorous to me that even Apple, with their locked down ecosystem, is willing to let you use their device without an account, but Microsoft is forcing you to sign up. I've used a Microsoft account in my life, even when I was using Windows. It's so enjoyable to be able to do a fresh install of Linux in about 15 minutes or less, none of the extra stuff needed!
