Hey there awesome people! Follow me on Instagram for the latest tech updates and news. IG handle below:
@Soul_Of_Tech
Think MS is doing sneaky stuff since this upload! The HP with windows 11 home i got for my wife 2 days ago is just trying to sell me 11 pro.. :( .. New method must be needed since all uploads i can find are the same with the same problem for me at end..
@Dom Janeczko yeah I was thinking my wife had her Microsoft accounts mixed up. We have 5-6 systems always running between us and the kids. Guy at the store got upset that he couldn't even work it out and then swapped it for 1 worth a lil more for no extra charge. Win win in the long run.
Too very past take slowly a little bit clicking the icon.
This is the ONLY video that people need to see.
Hands-down ! This is the best comprehensive and user-friendly, and easy to understand and step-by-step tutorial.
I watched other videos - and this is the VERY BEST video out there for this topic which is a very important topic.
Thank you for your video. I followed your video step-by-step, and it was so easy to understand, and it was extremely effective. And they did exactly what you said it would do.
Thank you very much. Please keep doing your videos. They are very informative and they are also very very user-friendly.
If they were giving stars for RUclips tutorial how to videos on topics like this - I would give it 10 STARS 🌟 out of 5.
I’m glad you found it to be of such help! Appreciate your kind words and comment ☺️
You seriously need to be more famous because you make very good quality videos and reviews without makeing the videos very long and boring. Thanks for being awesome 👌
yes
I appreciate that! Thank you for being even more awesome!
ur welcome 😊
Only if valve adds steam to microsoft store The S-mode is not that bad.
I agree
You are the absolute best in explaining this. I couldn’t follow any of the others that tried to explain this.…so glad your channel came up. You should teach this. I’ve subscribed to your channel and hope to learn more. Thank you for your help!!!
Thank you for the kind words and for subbing! I’m glad you found the content to be helpful!
Thank you! You saved me tons of time trying to figure this out on my own. I appreciate you explaining the "why" of S mode as well.
Glad it helped!
It keeps saying oops something went wrong I need help
Very well explained and informative video, keep up the good work!
Much appreciated!
Thank you so much!! I learned how to remove it but got nervous after the "you can not pass!" and go back, which made me nervous. It's on my daughter's new laptop and I'm trying to get it ready for Christmas morning. I am too stupid to do so but you've made me feel better about it. For what she needs, we definitely need it off. I can't thank you enough. I hope you have a wonderful holiday and new year!
I am glad you found the video to be helpful. You are not stupid at all, Microsoft tries to scare consumers needlessly and lots of people are not aware of this. Happy New Year/Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones!
@Valerie, that part made me nervous too, but I'm not nervous about it anymore.
Thank you, im buying a laptop for my parents and while they are not tech savvy they do prefer some non microsoft apps. I did not want to teach them to use the microsoft alternative. This video was very concise yet still contain the information i was looking for in regards to what exactly the S mode is and how to turn it off with a visual guide (as their laptop will not be in english)
Thank you SoulOfTech, this is eloquently said. I appreciate the care and patience you took to thoroughly assist others step by step! Now I can join my zoom to see my fam and friends in Trinidad!!!!
It’s always heart warming to know I could help someone. Happy New Years to you and your loved ones!
I love your instructions. You made it so easy for me to follow and I got through it like a breeze. S mode sucks, and if I can't download what I want on the laptop I paid for I don't need it.
I get how you feel, I am glad it worked out!
I feel the same way!!
I thought I purchased a computer that moment my usage. I was so frustrated with the S mode! I needed to install a PDF on my computer, but couldn’t find one that worked with my system. Thank you so much for your video. It was simple and easy to follow, even for senior citizens like myself😅😁
I’m really glad I could be of help. Thank you for the kind comment :)
I'm a advanced computer user, but this goes to show you can always learn more as I just purchased a laptop for my mother that came in Windows 11 S mode. I printed out instructions just thought I'd watch a few videos to make sure I'm doing it correctly and it is simple and straightforward thanks to your video. Keep up the good work my friend. Thank you
The best, concise and to the point tech video. You rock!
Thank you, You rock too :)
Thank you for such an easy directional video. Made my life very easy and will be looking forward to watching your other works.
You're very welcome!
Thanks for this video. You went straight to the point, and I was afraid to remove the s mode because I was afraid that it would cause some type of issue with my computer, but I'm not afraid anymore to hit that Get button.😬
No problem! Glad I could help you
@@SoulOfTech I forgot to say that it really works.
@@PMA1964 I was also afraid to switch out of S-Mode, I have been trying to decide for the past 3 months. This video helped a lot, and I'm sure I will be switching out of S-Mode. I just need to make sure I know which apps are certainly holding viruses. I'm so glad I found this video when I did, my friend was also asking me if S-Mode was worth it, now I know what to tell her. :D
@@cup1d199 Hi. I don't have any regrets. You may have to get a virus protector, I think it's called McAfee...that may be wrong. I have to work from home and I couldn't get my jobs app when I was in S-mode, and now I can. Thanks for your response 🙂
Thank you for the great tutorial! I had difficulty figuring it out on my own, despite much effort! I am a new subscriber.
Thanks for the sub glad to be of help!
You are brilliant! Thank for the very clear instructions onhow to remove S mode. You state the pros and cons in a clear concise manner. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Something has changed, brand new HP laptop with windows 11 home 2 days old out of
box from Jb-hifi Australia.. Only try's to sell me pro... All turn off s mode videos are useless from what i see.. F@ck you Microsoft :( .... Had no problems with the laptops from 2 years ago. My pro windows 10's desktop builds where done as said back when i built them
Thank you so much. I really needed this video because I wanted to download things outside of the Microsoft store but was worried about what that would mean.
Glad I was of help!
Clear and concise instructions. All sorted in minutes. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Why did it take me so long to find you. All the other videos were long, drawn out and complicated. You're my hero!
Comments like these make me even more thrilled to make future videos! Thank you 😊
Thank you for such a detailed, and easy to understand video. I’ve been looking for a new laptop, and keep seeing people being this up in reviews. I definitely do NOT want what is essentially a chrome book.
My pleasure!
Yours was the best explanation of coming out of S mode, well explained, clear pictures. Bravo to you fella.
Glad it helped
Thank you very much. This video is very useful for me because i wasn't sure if i should exit S mode. But since now that you've showed what it's for and how to remove it, i pretty feel freer now.
Glad it helped
I was completely confused because I haven't used a PC since Windows 8. This video was a great help! Thank you so much.
I am happy I was able to help you!
Thank so much i was worried about buying a laptop with windows 11 s mode but not being able to download steam and play couple of games. You made it seem so easy and straight to the point!
Glad to be of help!
Same here. Trying to run RealFlight from Steam & was blocked by S mode.
Very helpful and concise, thank you. About to go help my neighbor get rid of this "only our products or else" mode on his new laptop so he can get the programs he needs.
Thanks for watching glad I could help you and your neighbour.
Life saver. I kept buying label printers thinking that was the problem. Thank you so much. So so appreciated
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much. I watched several videos about this situation and yours was the fastest and most simple fix!
Great to hear!
This is the best RUclips description video I've seen in almost a decade probably. It should be used in classes about how to make this sort of video.
I don't usually comment but I can't stress enough how much everyone in RUclips who does this needs to learn from you how to make a real helpful tech video
Thank you for the feedback. Glad to hear you found this video to be helpful :)
Not really. It didn't work and now the "get" button is gone. This video is outdated.
@@cennon Considering you're replying to a comment I made half a year ago, that shouldn't be particularly surprising, should it?
@@cennon whoa....
What didn't work?
I need to know before I mess up my work Surface Book
@@diegor9825 @Cenn Jonson whoa....
What didn't work?
I need to know before I mess up my work Surface Book
You read my mind! I was hesitant to turn S mode off because I thought it would mess up my laptop. I searched for minutes and was unsuccessful to find the information I needed until I came across this video.
I am glad I was of help :)
How is it working now?
AMAZING VIDEO!! Thank you so much, very easy to follow along
You're very welcome!
Such an easier way than some of the other vids presenting. Thx
Glad it helped!
THANk YOU SO MUCH! I’ve had many windows laptop before, never had this issue ! just got a new laptop, was so confused and freaking out about s mode 😭
Glad it helped!
First let know if it worked, since i need to buy a new Dell laptop which is in S mode and especially is in Windows 11 OS. So worried if i can buy.
Yes.. please update as even I am planning to buy a laptop which has Windows 11 S mode. confirm if we can switch out of S mode
@@LiruLavan Do not buy a Dell inspiron 15 3000...worst medel...have applied for a refund for its deadly slowness.
I was getting ready to return my HP with Windows 11 in S mode because it wouldn’t let me install my printer. THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO! I was so stressed out and almost in tears I was so frustrated with my computer lol
Yes,I had the same issue with printer installation, and actually I had to return the printer. 😏
Love the reviews, keep it up 👍🏼
Thank you. I am definitely come back to your channel for advice. Love your work. Very easy to understand and follow. 😀
Happy to hear that!
I also will come back when necessary.
Tried it and failed… it’s says something went wrong we couldn’t start the upgrade
same
Same here. I ended up returning a brand new laptop after multiple attempts and even talking directly with MS.
Avoid this OS
I actually believe that S Mode is good idea for the not tech savy, maybe your grandparents and kids. But not for everyone else it is very limited, if my mother didn't use spss and other similar software I would be very happy to have S mode in her computer, she has given me the greatest troubleshooting challenges throughout the years.
S mode can be helpful for people with a very basic use case for sure.
Lol yes!!!
Of sure. I paid all this money to get the latest computer just so I could NOT download what I need and escape MS?
@@ronlevine8873 Yep - gotcha
I'm kind of both... I'm not particularly tech savvy, but I know not to open or install unknown things. I just bought an Authentrend fingerprint sensor from Amazon but I can't use it because of S mode. So I'm considering turning it off... but I haven't decided yet.
I just had to say thank you so much for this video!! I thought I was going to go crazy with this frustrating "S mode". This is a very helpful and useful video.
You're very welcome! Please consider subscribing for more content like this :)
Thank you so much!! I have been trying to look for a video like this without using the advanced apps button.
Glad I could help!
Great video, great explanation and appreciate the video. My dad wants to buy a laptop and I noticed it had Win11 S mode and didn't know what that was. I think for my dad's purpose I may leave S mode enabled for extra protection. Thanks again.
Glad it helped
hello, I have a small issue. I discovered this ''Get'' button to switch out of S mode yesterday, I clicked on it hoping it would be removed in seconds or a couple of minutes, but it just kept saying ''Working on It'' for an entire night and even more hours since I let it working, went to bed and when I woke up it was still ''Working on It''. Please answer, I don't know what to do. Thanks.
If it still hasnt done it, try closing the Microsoft store app if it will let you, and then go back in and try again
If it wont let you, then try rebooting the computer, and then go back in and try again
Thank you so much for your easy to figure out video. You seriously saved me a big headache!!!
My pleasure!
Thanks alot man! Very clear and concise.
Glad to be of help!
Mine says try again. And underneath that it says SOMETHING HAPPENED AND WE COULDNT START THE UPGRADE
Thank you so much, I got a Windows 11 for Christmas and I wanted to download stuff but I couldn’t so I found this video and you helped me! Again, thank you so much!
