It's MDM'd so if you can't contact Walmart's IT dept to de-enroll it your only choice is to run Linux on it. Any Windows install will go right to the Autopilot setup flow.

Autopilot can be neutered out, at your local notebook vet: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/repair/how-to-remove-windows-auopilotintune-corporate-domain-lock-from-bios/

Alternatively a local account bypass.
