Repro:

On already installed windows:
1. open device manager
2. click View -> Show hidden devices
3. uninstall all devices under Network Adapters section
By creating new VM: in network type section choose Do not use a network connection

Hello, it is obvious that network authentification will not work without actual network and it is assumed by default just like if target machine should have monitor or CPU. The real drawback of this method is password requirement, everything else does not. In any case if there is no network adapter this method will simple fail with API returned status which I can add as method result in the next update.
