A:Answerafter I bought mine I had to just wait a few days maybe a week before the download was available. you will get a notification. and installing google chrome is more complicated because you have to go through about 5 to 6 steps including downloading a couple of files from the internet. Ialso you will not have windows installed anymore. You can go back to windows but you will have to go through another set of steps. it will be best just to buy a chromebook if thats what you want.
A:AnswerThe laptop was only qualified, validated and released with Windows O, ASUS doesn't provide Linux support, please install it at your own discretion.
A:AnswerNo, you can only use Edge in 'S' mode (according to Microsoft). Mine stayed in S mode for only a few minutes before I switched to standard Windows 11, and I didn't try to install Chrome (or any other software) during that time. I have no reason to believe that the installs wouldn't have failed or been blocked.
A:AnswerI believe the "S" stands for "secure." The idea is that you can only use programs from the Microsoft store, which have been certified as safe (no malware). By "coincidence," though, it also excludes many popular programs, such as the Chrome browser. Fear not, however, Microsoft offers an easy way to remove the "S" aspect, so you can install any software you want, no matter how "dangerous" :). People will tell you that this procedure is IRREVERSIBLE, but that is not true. However, the procedure to return to "S" mode returns the computer to factory-fresh condition, meaning it WIPES OUT ALL PROGRAMS AND DATA, so it might as well be irreversible, unless you are returning it to the seller or selling it yourself to some else and don't want your personal information going with it.
A:AnswerYes, the laptop's internal speaker has a decent loudness volume level. However, in a noisy workplace we recommend using a headset for better listening pleasure.
