A:AnswerBecause the computer is running in S Mode, it can only download apps that are in the Windows Store, and the AOL browser is not available. However, you can easily take the computer out of S mode, and then you could download and run the AOL browser. Microsoft has the instructions for taking the computer out of S mode at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/switching-out-of-s-mode-in-windows-4f56d9be-99ec-6983-119f-031bfb28a307#WindowsVersion=Windows_11

A:AnswerThank you for the question. Yes, but you'll need to install Microsoft Office to a flash drive or connect an external CD drive, and save documents to the flash drive or cloud storage - this laptop has just 64GB of storage onboard.
