This is a bug in the windows 11 ARM build, To fix that you need to do as follow
- Press 'fn+shift+f10'
- Press 'option+tab'
- Then you will see a UAC window, move to that window by pressing 'option+tab' and then press 'yes' button
Then CMD will be opened
I'm at the network selection screen in my setup and for some reason, Shift-F10 appears to do nothing. Did they patch that out?

Hi Robert,
Just checking in with you, were you able to use that shortcut to get into Command Prompt?
If you still cannot get into Command Prompt, when you boot form the USB, select 'Repair This Compute, and Command Prompt should be available from the Recovery Environment.
If you have SnagIt installed, check it's hotkey configuration....by default, it is configured to capture Shift + F10. Change it to something else to get Shift + F10 workiing normally again.
Windows 8.1 has that key combination built-in. Though applications do have their own keyboard shortcuts, which could be hijacking that combo, another possibility is that an additional key, e.g. Fn, needs to be pressed. This "multimedia feature" can be enabled or disabled, see http://www.thewindowsclub.com/change-function-key-behavior-windows-laptops or http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/laptop/f/3518/t/19267017.
If that does not resolve the issue, you may have to uninstall recently added programs, one at a time, until you find the culprit, or use System Restore to get the feature back. [If all else fails, an external mouse is ~US$5. ;-) ]
