Start button on the taskbar and select "Run", as shown below.

enable it and join a network.

reboot the computer.
Click the "OK" button in the "System Preparation Tool 3.14" window.
Use the default settings shown in the image below.
When the computer reboots, you will have left the Audit mode. You should boot to the following display.
On my computer, I was able to select the "United States (Apple)" keyboard. You may want to check if a better choice exists than the default keyboard.
At this point, you can continue with the Windows 10 installation.
Personally, I found this software to be unpredictable. I could get the software to hide an update, but I had trouble getting a hidden update to install.
