Q: QuestionHow do I get this out of S Mode? Every time I try it tells me something went wrong.(4 answers)
A: AnswerI ran into that "something went wrong" error many times when trying to use the Microsoft method of disabling S mode on my new Windows 11 Home - Vivobook. As a Linux technician, this was quite frustrating. I need to be able to install multiple browsers and Windows Sub-system Linux (from the Windows Store!) to able to work. That is not possible in S Mode. I also learned that you can't just use function keys to access the BIOS menu any longer. My 17yo daughter helped me find an accurate YouTube video to assist. First, I edited the Registry Hive Key to disable the policy that forces S Mode to be enabled. If you're not familiar - BE EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS IN THE REGISTRY! This gentleman (CyberCPU Tech) shows how to do that part, as well as if you are having trouble opening the Registry Editor thanks to Windows security measures: https://youtu.be/ZTWKvDF1dqI. He indicates that you may not need to do anything else in order to disable S Mode. I had to also use Windows Settings >> System >> Recovery to "Restart Now" (related to Advanced startup) in order to access the BIOS. This article may be helpful with that part: https://www.wikihow.com/Turn-Off-S-Mode-in-Windows-11. I used the second method, "Without a Microsoft Account", even though I have a Microsoft account and was logged into it at the time. From the blue landing page, use "Troubleshoot" to see the Advanced Options to get into "UEFI Firmware Settings", aka BIOS. Once the BIOS menu opens, look at the top for the "Security" tab. On the Security tab you should find "Secure boot" enabled. Disable it, save & exit. Double check in Windows >> Settings >> System >> About to verify that S Mode is no longer present. Best of luck!Answered by KristenC

Great Value Laptop for School
This laptop is perfect for school work. It's not a powerhouse, but it handles web browsing and basic tasks like a champ. I've been using it for writing papers in Word and it hasn't broken a sweat. It might struggle with heavy Excel stuff, but that's not what it's meant for anyway. For the price, this laptop is a total steal. It's got everything you need for school without any unnecessary bells and whistles. If you're a student on a budget, this is the laptop for you.

Awesome Little Machine…..
I purchased my daughter the 2023 version of this Asus Vivobook last year and loved the performance so I decided to purchase one for myself. So far so good. This laptop is a little powerhouse. It runs smoothly and efficiently and meets my needs. For the price point, I highly recommend if you don’t want to spend much money and need a decent performing laptop.

Good option for the price
At an offer price of $250 it is a good option. Starts fast. Internet browsing and basic apps move quickly without problems. The battery is terrible, it lasts approximately 4 hours. It is plastic but the material looks resistant. 8GB memory but you can add another 16GB. Storage is about 50GB free but can be updated. Screen is not IPS. This model sold by Best Buy comes with a numeric keypad and no fingerprint unlock as seen in the images.
