Windows 10: win 11 in S mode back to win 11 home

We got a new Lenovo Idea pad with I5 processor, 512 GB RAM having Windows 11 in S mode. The Settings menu doesn't show up. Also I need to use or install lot many apps that are not in Windows store. I regularly use a command window for running shell scripts. This laptop with S mode doesn't allow to start a command window. At this point, can I switch back to win 11 home? It says its one way only and cannot come back to S mode. I want to know if I can switch back safely or buy a laptop with windows 11 Home edition without S mode? Appreciate any feedback..

Win 11 compat app

Both your CPU and graphics card should be ok- your CPU is on the list:
Windows 11 CPU List Released | WePC

and your graphics card is new enough to support DirectX 12.

These requirements are set by the installer of Win 11. Detailed specs for Win 11 have been released by MS and are given in other such threads here and on elevenforum, but may change slightly before official release.

Win 11 compatibility

You do not need to reply to me. You can post in this thread to get the benefit of everybody's wisdom. Such as that of Bree who has also read the Windows 11 section of Windows Processor Requirements - MSDocs and has identified that your CPU is not listed there.
