Hi:

You cannot install any software other than what is available at the Microsoft Store on any PC running W10 or W11 in S-Mode.

If you need to install programs that are not available at the Microsoft Store, you will need to switch out of S-Mode.

See this link for how to switch out of S-Mode.

After you make the change, you cannot go back to W11 in S-Mode unless you use the factory recovery media you make with the HP cloud recovery tool.
