Windows 10: Can't switchnew Laptop out of "S" mode.

I have tried every trick and still cannot get this PC out of S mode. I bought 2 identical laptops, the first one went fine but the second one keeps getting the same "Something went wrong and we couldn't upgrade". I've tried resetting app store cache, making sure the PC software is up to date, I've tried using different microsoft accounts and NOTHING WILL WORK. I'm so tired of Microsoft forcing us to use their lame "verified apps". I PAID FOR THE COMPUTER, LET ME USE IT HOW I WANT.Can anyone help me, please?

laptop doesnt boot automatically

This is what happened.

1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.

 

New FF - passwords

Hi:

If that setting is already enabled, then I suggest as the next troubleshooting step might be Mozilla Safe Mode (not to be confused with Windows Safe Mode)):

• Please report back and let us know the outcome, as it will dictate the next steps.
• Also: please tell us what AV/AM/firewall programs are you running on this system?

Thanks,
