    Purchased a New Laptop w Windows Home in S Mode and Installed Windows 11 Pro Issue


    Good afternoon community! I purchased a laptop two days ago for home and office use. It is an Asus Vivibook with pre-installed Windows 10 Home in S mode. Upon opening and starting up the laptop, I downloaded Windows 11 Pro from my volume licensing account. I installed Windows 11 Pro successfully. However, I tried installing printer drivers, Office software, and other needed applications but was not able to due to the laptop being in S mode. I then tried factory resetting the laptop due to not being able to install the other software. Every time I factory reset the laptop, it does not automatic

    It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

    Heres a couple examples:

    It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

    I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP
