Hi Leah,

I'm Paul and I'm here to help you with your concern.

Yes, you can buy a Windows 11 Laptop not in S mode from different brands.

Also, you can switch out of S-mode if that happens unexpectedly.

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted.

Let's stick to one topic and leave the emotional stuff aside. To print a picture from anywhere, do this:

1. Create a desktop shortcut for snippingtool.exe.
2. Drag it onto the Task Bar so that it is always easily accessible.
3. Click it on the Task Bar to open it.
4. Use your mouse to draw a frame around any screen area.
5. Click File, then Print.

Step 4 depends a bit on your version of Windows (which you did not state).
