AtlasOS is also pretty good to set up after windows is installed but before anything else is set up.

Atlas OS is definitely a good option.

I've been running it on my home media PC and it does the trick.

As far as getting to the point where you can sign in to run the atlas installer, I've had good luck with downloading a Windows ISO and burning it to a USB stick with Rufus with the setting in Rufus set to create a local admin account.
