Windows 10: "Get" disabled in Store for "Switch out of Mode S"

I bought my daughter an HP Stream laptop for school that came with Microsoft windows 10 in Mode S...

When I go into the settings to the activate tab there is a link to upgrade to the windows 10 Pro in Mode S but no link to the store for switching out of Mode S.

When I go into the store an search for "Switch out of Mode S" I find the page but the "Get" button is disabled. It says to contact your IT department.

Switch Out of S Mode Not Working in Microsoft Store

I finally was able to fix this "Switch Out of S" issue. It is not obvious so I wanted to share.

First, the issue is with the Microsoft Store, not the device. Here are the steps...

• Open the Microsoft Store app
• Click on the "..." at the upper right of the screen
• Choose "Downloads and Updates"
• Scroll down to the Microsoft Store app and click to update

The update downloaded to my new Surface Go.

Then on your device...

• Go to your device's Windows Settings
• Select "Update & Security"
• Select "Activation"
• Select "Switch Out of S" and go to Microsoft Store
• Once there you will be able to make the switch

Talk about painful...

Good luck,

Paulette
