Switching out of S mode in Windows 11
Windows 11 in S mode is designed for security and performance, exclusively running apps from the Microsoft Store. If you want to install an app that isn't available in the Microsoft Store, you'll need to switch out of S mode.
1. On your PC running Windows 11 in S mode, open Settings > System > Activation.
2. In the Switch to Windows 11 Pro section, select Go to the Store. (If you also see an "Upgrade your edition of Windows" section, be careful not to click the "Go to the Store" link that appears there.)
3. On the Switch out of S mode (or similar) page that appears in the Microsoft Store, select the Get button. After you see a confirmation message on the page, you'll be able to install apps from outside of the Microsoft Store.

Honestly, for the price, this is not a bad laptop! I was looking for something I could game on, instead of cramming up my MacBook with stuff. The initial storage room for this laptop is not huge; however, it comes with an SD card! That was a nice bonus. It is not the fastest laptop in the world, but that is to be expected for how cheap it is. The keyboard is really nice and the keys feel good to type on. I don't really use the mouse tracking pad, but it hooks up to my USB mouse just fine! I think that this laptop would be perfect for someone who doesn't need to load a lot of programs, maybe someone who enjoys streaming videos, or just browsing the internet. Overall I think this is a good laptop for the price, but do your research to make sure this is what you are looking for. When I set the laptop up, it said something about a finger print lock and a touch screen - both of these options are not available for this laptop.For the price point (which is very reasonable), I have no complaints. Using this laptop as a backup for my work issued computer and quite frankly I prefer using this thing. I run through a virtual desktop anyway and getting this laptop fired up is a breeze. Battery life is decent. No touch screen capability, but that's not a deal killer in my book. Worth the minimal investment I made.Revised review to 4 stars from 1. If you're lured to these by an Amazon flash offer, and begin to compare other options/offers, be sure to throughly compare the descriptions. Or you'll purchase something you didn't want. If you find this out after you set everything up and there is no problem with the computer itself, you're stuck with it. The other issue I had was the inability to exit Win 11 S mode.
After hours of trying the standard method and several youtube videos with complex work arounds, I gave up. Today I decided to express my feelings in the MS Edge search window and I received this response from Copilot. (posted in the picture above). I post because subsequent requests produced different results. This work around worked quickly and was a three step fix. Have exited S mode and am happily running Google Chrome. Plus all my Google info and files from my broken laptop ported over. One last note: this is definitely a computer for students. It is priced reasonably considering post Covid greedflation prices. It is comparetively slow and not for use use for gamers. I will keep it as I need a computer for research and writing papers. 5/30/2024-My laptop broke. Needed to complete paperwork for a project with tight time lured by "Deal" for laptop with 4GB ram 64 storage Bluetooth, Wi-Fi. $169, 12hr delivery. I figure it was good enough to get my work done. At the site several other options were available with the same features and more memory. All had delivery dates of 1=2 days except 1 with 8GB ram, 192GB storage for $259 w/ $40 coupon, Thought extra memory and storage was worth extra $90. Computer arrived. It took an 1-1/2 hr to do updates. When I tried to download Chrome to work in Google docs {state recommended for changes}. This computer is locked into MS S mode blocking download of apps not in MS store.
After spending 2hrs trying different S mode exit directions is was resolved to doing the work on my Samsung S20 which took 3 hours to do 1 hr of work. This computer doesn't have Bluetooth, is extremely slow. MS locks y into using Edge in a worse case scenario than they did with Explorer 25 yrs ago. Don't be lured by the free1yr of Home 365. Cannot return because I used it and is technically not broken. HP is obviously returning to the days of cheap low-grade Compaq. Clearest example of Greedflation. It also moved data from broken laptop creating what will be hours of scrubbing to sell at 1/2 price on Ebay.I like the HP brand. It's not overly expensive and serves it's purpose. I've used similar laptops from junior college to the Master's program and will be using this one for business. I would recommend.
