  1. Is keeping S mode on worth?


    I haven't had a PC since Windows 7. Apparently, Windows introduced something called "S mode" since then. Googling around, I'm not sure if I should deactivate it or not.

    I want to use my PC mainly for YouTuber and casual usage stuff. Is S mode worth it? Can you download stuff (like video games not on the Microsoft Store) from the web or does S mode block that?

  2. 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)):

    Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode | Firefox Help


    • 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,
    MM

  4. Is keeping S mode on worth?

    projection mode - flashing screen

    Thank you for the information. Since you’ve already tried to rollback to a previous version of the driver, we suggest checking the settings if the device is set to Tablet mode. To do so, please follow these steps.



    • Access device settings by typing Settings using Cortana’s search bar.
    • On settings, choose System.
    • Select Tablet mode on the options.
    • Please make sure that under When I sign in, the option is set to Use desktop mode.


    Keep us posted regarding the concern and if further assistance is necessary.
