Windows 11 - Find hidden URIs

Many people are using my method to install a local account instead of an MS online/cloud account by using the URI   ms-cxh://  

During OOBE, press Shift+F10 to open CMD and type: start ms-cxh://localonly to create a local user account and continue the installation from there.

You won't find the parameters that the URI ms-cxh:// can use anywhere online or in the Windows registry, as MS does not publish them - they're hidden.

The URI ms-cxh://localonly can be found in the file: C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.Windows.CloudExperienceHost_cw5n1h2txyewy\js\errorHandler.js

This file was found using the Super God Mode script , which runs a Powershell script to search within files for hidden URIs.

BTW, you can run a similar search using Notepad++ :

Open Notepad++ as admin > Search > Find in files > Enter the search string, for example ms-cxh:  and directory, for example C:\Windows > CHECK "In all subfolders, CHECK "in hidden folders".

Add a filter if you like, for example: *.* !*.dmp !*.msi !*.msp !*.etl !*.log !*.jpg !*.png !*.wim !*.sys
and click "Find all". Wait for the results, they will appear at the bottom pane.
