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

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.
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?

Shift +F10 not working.

You can overcome this limitation by also passing in Fn, so in your case you'd press Shift+Fn+F10.
I tried all possible all possible combination of Shift+Fn+F10, but nothing worked.
Then i clicked on that Accessibility icon and enabled on-screen keyboard and then selected Shift+Fn+F10 again and it opened the cmd prompt this time, but it does not come into focus, to do that you can then use option+tab on your physical keyboard.

Since according to AveYo (thanks for this) this is only temporarily integrated into Windows 11 by Microsoft, one can assume that this command will not work for much longer. I truly hope it remains.

Then you can reactivate the Internet connection and add a password to the account, as well as make all other settings.
Alternative Workaround that should remain feasible, more trouble than the simple above command:
If the Internet is disabled, you start the reinstallation of Windows 11. You get to the window: "Unfortunately you have lost the Internet connection". From here it starts. Replace "User Name" with whatever you wish to use for the account:
Press Shift + F10. The command prompt opens
net.exe user "User Name" /add
net.exe localgroup "Administrators" "User Name" /add
cd OOBE
msoobe.exe && shutdown.exe -r
Windows will now restart and start with the other settings until Windows 11 is installed correctly with a local account.
When logging in, "The user name or password is incorrect" now appears.
Simply press OK and select the right account at the bottom left of screen. You should have one for Administrator and one for whatever name you used as "User Name" above.
Lets hope the simple oobe\bypassnro stays, as I have used both methods, and the first is by far the easiest.

Great piece of info, will save it for future use
This is the only workaround I was able to use to accomplish the set-up of a machine running OOBE with Windows 11 S.
The Shift+F10 thing doesn't really work, so unfortunately you need to have a valid Windows account.
After you set-up the internet connection, you might do Shift+F10 to open the command prompt. This doesn't work, but if you do alt+tab and then windows key+R you can get the run window.
Type CMD, the protection of Windows 11 S mode is going to prevent it. Click on 'see how' at the left of the window.
This open the Windows store at the 'Get Windows 11' page, removing the S, for secure :D, restriction.
Here is where you need to use your windows credentials: Sign in to the Windows store, get out of the Windows S mode.
Use Windows+R once again to open a run window and open a command prompt - cmd.
Switch folders to C:/Windows/system32/oobe
Once inside, run bypassNRO.cmd
You should see a message that the command was successful before the machine reboots. Now the OOBE setup should include the no internet connection.
