Preferably from 2020 onwards and without the need for a mandatory product key/Microsoft account, I’ve already had a lot of headaches because of these two “casualities”!

All files are official Microsoft ISO files. This has everything you need including explanation and instructions how you can verify its legitimize. and how to activate windows
To bypass the forced Microsoft account you can create a unattend file and pre configure the ISO to make a local account.
I should have done this when I set up my computer, I had to manually change it after I set up Windows 11. I don’t have anything against logging into my Microsoft account but having the actual account on the computer be a Microsoft account instead of a local account feels wrong. What if my account gets hacked, I’d just lose access to my computer!
Don’t worry, as long as you don’t use bitlocker or backup the bitlocker key it’s trivial to bypass the login on Windows or Linux.
Yes and the better option if you do want to use a Microsoft account. Just login to the apps like onedrive on the local account.
Literally the only reason I log in at all is because I have the Master Chief Collection purchased through the Microsoft Store and Windows always picks up my Windows license once I login
