Windows 10: Exiting Windows 10 S Mode on the Galaxy Book 2

Hello,


I am getting conflicting information on the viability of exiting Win10 S mode on the Galaxy Book 2 (GB2). The device has the specs to run the full version of Windows 10 but Samsung has advised against it without being able to provide me with a specific reason why. I understand that the RAM and CPU wont be able to handle all the multi tasking that WIN10 can do on regular hardware, but if I keep it's workload light it seems as if it should handle it just fine. I just want to be able to run a very light weight application that isn't available in the Windows Store. The GB2's hardware exceeds the minimum requirements for running WIN10 Home but I obviously dont want to be maxing the hardware out. So my question is, how practical would it be to run the GB2 on WIN10 Home?

:)

 

Samsung Galaxy Book 2 (Verizon)

I purchased the galaxy book 2 from verizon. The system specs are listed below. I switched out of Windows 10 Home S mode to Windows 10 Home in order to install apps from outside the store. However, many programs fail to install. Western Digital Discovery,
Bitdefender, Realtimes...ect. They give no error codes. What seems to be the problem. The computer can run Office 365 so I am sure it can run these programs. WD Discovery at least. What seems to be the problem? Please help.
