  What is S Mode and why would I want it on a laptop? How do I know if I can convert an S mode laptop to a full Win 10?

  I think I had heard it mentioned, but was not familiar with it. According to Microsoft, it keeps Windows more secure by only allow apps that were downloaded from the Microsoft Store to run. Microsoft also states that once “S Mode” is disabled, it cannot be reenabled. I am including two Microsoft links below.
