 ### Checking in lockfiles
 
-It's **always** recommended to commit the lockfile of your package manager for security and performance reasons. For more information consult the "Working with lockfiles" section of the [Advanced usage](docs/advanced-usage.md#working-with-lockfiles) guide.

+### Running without a lockfile
+
+If you choose not to use a lockfile, you must ensure that **caching is disabled**. The `cache` feature relies on the lockfile to generate a unique key for the cache entry.
+
+To run without a lockfile:
+1. Do not set the `cache` input.
+2. If your `package.json` contains a `packageManager` field set to npm (or devEngines.packageManager), automatic caching is enabled by default. Override this by setting `package-manager-cache: false`.
+
+```yaml
+steps:
+- uses: actions/checkout@v6
+- uses: actions/setup-node@v6
+  with:
+    node-version: '24'
+    package-manager-cache: false # Explicitly disable caching if you don't have a lockfile
+- run: npm install
+- run: npm test
+```
+
 ## Check latest version
 
 The `check-latest` flag defaults to `false`. When set to `false`, the action will first check the local cache for a semver match. If unable to find a specific version in the cache, the action will attempt to download a version of Node.js. It will pull LTS versions from [node-versions releases](https://github.com/actions/node-versions/releases) and on miss or failure will fall back to the previous behavior of downloading directly from [node dist](https://nodejs.org/dist/). Use the default or set `check-latest` to `false` if you prefer stability and if you want to ensure a specific version of Node.js is always used.
