  1. trapped in S mode


    I am stuck in S Mode. I have a personal laptop with Windows 11 Home S mode and I have tried all the "fixes" when I complete the steps and go to the store and the "GET" option, it is greyed out and not an option. So what are my other options to get out of S mode so I can download other apps. HELP I have tried everything for days including 3 calls with microsoft and resetting mutipal times and finally told I need to contact HP support. I am at my witts end.

    :)
