  1. Unable to Switch out of S Mode


    I purchased a Lenovo laptop on May 5th from Best Buy. All Microsoft instructions end of empty handed. They lead you to believe that you turn off S mode and it never works and blocks me from using required meeting apps. Please explain how to go to Windows Home or Windows Pro. Either without the S mode.Kathleen AllenLeague City, *** Email address is removed for privacy ***

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    Airplane mode switch not working

    Since the troubleshooting steps that were provided did not resolve the issue, we suggest switching on the Radio Management Service. To do that, please follow the steps below:

    • Press Windows key + R.
    • Type services.msc, then hit Enter.
    • Search for Radio Management Service.
    • Right-click, then choose Start.

    Note: Never ever set this service to "Disabled".

    Get back to us if the steps won't work.
