The Windows 10 ESU enrollment notification finally showed up on my main computer. I’ll show you how the official process went for me and a way to force enrollment using only a local account.
I urge you to make a full system image backup before starting this process.
Check Windows Update > click Enroll Now
Click Next
Click Enroll > You’ll have to log in to your Microsoft Account, you may have to backup some stuff.
That’s it. Windows Update should show you’re enrolled in ESU.

Wanna bypass all that and get enrolled using a local account?
Understand this is all “unofficial”. Please BACK UP using a system image BEFORE running this.
The Win10 ESU enrollment option had not showed up on my secondary PC.
There is a script overt at GitHub that lets you use command line or PowerShell to enroll in Win10 ESU: https://github.com/abbodi1406/ConsumerESU
The instructions are all there. I used PowerShell and the script worked perfectly.
If you like you can add “Open PowerShell window here as administrator” to your right-click menu.
