A shell script that bypasses Mobile Device Management (MDM) enrollment during macOS setup, supporting versions up to macOS Tahoe 26.3. It runs from Recovery Mode Terminal and automatically detects system and data volumes to create a local user that skips MDM enrollment.

Use cases

• bypass MDM enrollment screen during macOS setup
• set up a second-hand Mac enrolled in a company MDM
• skip remote management enrollment on a fresh macOS install
• remove device management prompt when reinstalling macOS
• create a local admin user to avoid MDM registration

When to choose

• you are at the MDM enrollment screen during a fresh macOS installation and want to skip it
• you have legitimate ownership of a Mac still enrolled in a previous organization's MDM
• you want an automated script with volume detection and error handling rather than manual steps

When to avoid

• you do not own or have authorization to manage the device, as bypassing MDM may be illegal
• your organization requires MDM enrollment for compliance and security policies
• you need a supported, vendor-approved way to unenroll a device
