I'm trying to set up Windows 11 Home on my new PC build, but I've hit a snag during the installation. There's a prompt that says 'Let's connect you to a network,' but the only option available is a button that says 'Install driver.' It suggests that if I need to connect, I should download a network adapter driver. Any advice on how to move past this?

Glad to hear you found a workaround! If your next issue is getting online, make sure you've got your network adapter drivers ready. Sometimes those can be tricky, especially in fresh installs.
It sounds like Microsoft is pushing for users to sign in with a Microsoft account to complete the setup, which is why they're prompting for an internet connection. There are ways to bypass this, so I recommend searching for 'install Windows 11 without internet' to find some current methods. One popular source is a Microsoft Tech Community thread that explains how you can proceed without an active network connection.
Just a heads up, back up your data before making changes to your system settings. There's a risk when adjusting BIOS settings or disk setups. Always good to stay safe!
