Windows 10: Unable to switch out of S mode - try again

I have just purchased a new laptop and have been unable to switch out of S mode following all available help guides. From the microsoft store i get to the page that says "Switch out of S mode" with the Get icon. When i click the Get it just comes up "something happened and we couldn't start the upgrade - Try again" Trying again does nothing
