Downloading Chrome

[vms828]

My laptop will not download Chrome. It keeps asking if I want to get out of S mode and then I’ll be able to install. I can’t even find Chrome in the App Store.

The reason it is asking about leaving S mode is two fold.  Here is an article about S mode:

https://www.howtogeek.com/354057/what-is-windows-10-in-s-mode/ 

 In that posting you will find this:

1) Windows 10 in S Mode is a more limited, locked-down Windows operating system. In S Mode, you can only install apps from the Store, and you can only browse the web with Microsoft Edge.

2) 

Windows 10’s S Mode is optional. Most Windows 10 PCs come with standard Windows 10 Home or Windows 10 Professional operating systems that let you run software from everywhere. PCs that ship with S Mode will say they use “Windows 10 Home in S Mode” or “Windows 10 Professional in S Mode” in their product specifications.

Even if you purchase a PC in S Mode, you can leave S Mode for free. It doesn’t cost anything, but it is a one-time decision—once you’ve taken the PC out of S Mode, you can never put it back into S Mode.
