The Microsoft program Windows Insider allows friends of the company to test upcoming Windows 10 features before they are released to consumers.
To join the program you need a Microsoft account and of course a system with Windows 10. Unfortunately, if you do not have a Microsoft account you can not participate in the Windows Insider program.
Μέχρι σήμερα, καθώς ένας ανεξάρτητος προγραμματιστής ανέπτυξε ένα script που ονομάζεται 'Offline Insider Enroll'. This script allows Windows 10 PCs to join the Insider program without a Microsoft account.
Σύμφωνα με τις ανακοινώσεις έκδοσης στο Github, ο προγραμματιστής αναφέρει ότι το script εκμεταλλεύεται την τιμή μητρώου "TestFlags" για την εγγραφή ενός χρήστη στο πρόγραμμα:
Εάν αυτή η τιμή έχει οριστεί σε "0x20", η online access in Windows Insider services disabled. So we can have the Windows Insider program, and because Windows Update doesn't check if the machine is actually enrolled in the program, it will give you the Insiders updates.
The script installation process is quite easy and is performed entirely in the Command Prompt as described below.
Let's see how it works:
Κατεβάστε το script "Offline Insider Enroll" from GitHub and save it anywhere on your system.
Export the file to view OfflineInsiderEnroll.cmd.
To run the script, right-click click στο αρχείο και επιλέξτε 'Εκτέλεση ως διαχειριστής'.
You will be asked to select the Ring you want to connect to. More information about the various rings you can find here.
After selecting the ring you are interested in, you will be prompted to restart your computer.
After rebooting the system, open the Windows Insider control panel in Settings and you will see that you have been added to the selected ring.
To stop running Windows Insider, you can run the script again, but this time select X and then restart your computer.
