Microsoft Activation Offline  - Not for you guys in secure locations anymore!

With the removal of local account setup for Windows Installer from Win 11 25H2 those of us who work in locations that do not permit connection of device to the "outside world" for security reasons (or just because we don't like the "outside world") are now also unable to activate Windows offline using telephone activation.

That's also no longer available for Office 2024.

With both you can still generate an activation challenge code from your machine, but it seems Microsoft's activation support team can't process it .

If there's anyone around who has a direct line to Redmond? Can they confirm?  Otherwise it looks like this is going to be an issue for the "one or two" (I can't confirm numbers for ... well ... reasons ...) secure locations around the world that need to be air-gapped (and not just those locations that are used for <Redacted>).

Maybe hold out for Extended Security Updates (ESU) for Windows 10 machines?
Some Windows 10 users who can't upgrade to 11 seeing "Enrol" button and able to add ESU for Year One at no cost...
