Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Office 365 for a year is included with the system, but space limitations with Windows 8.1 greatly constrain the addition of further apps. The HP apps provided are rather limited from a functionality standpoint, but I use OneDrive and Outlook on the system. My space woes are covered in this review: WinSxS bloat eats available drive space. The Windows folder keeps growing and growing...this is actually normal for Windows. Problem: the system only has 32 GB of drive space..after just a few weeks, Windows/WinSxS grew to almost 10 GB, Windows used 17 GB, was down to 1 GB left at one point. The system had only Office 365 and a few tiny apps installed. Used DISM.exe and the Task Scheduler to attempt to shrink WinSxS.. Used Windows Cleanup running as Administrator too: I knocked off a couple of gigs, but I ended up having to run HP recovery to do a full reinstall. I have two of these Hp Stream Notebook 13 C002dx systems purchased over the last few weeks..both suffer severely from Windows bloat. An HP tech suggested a recovery CD, will try that when it arrives (will have to buy a portable CD drive if I can't network install from my desktop PCs). I haven't given up though: will try Linux or Windows 10 if I can't fix the vanishing drive issue. These systems are still sort of usable, you just won't be able to add many apps. If HP had designed these with 64GB disk space instead of 32, all would have been well. I can clean Windows for a while, but the bloat soon takes over. Manual deletion of the WinSxS folder or its files is not recommended: you'll break the OS. Many other users seem to have this issue as well as I checked for a solution online. With this system, the user starts out with 21 GB, not 32, because a third of the drive is recovery software. Windows eats most of the rest. That leaves the system seriously crippled even for minimal usage requirements. Attempts to take ownership over the Windows/WinSxS folder were defeated by the system..TrustedInstaller interferes with DISM.exe, et cetera. On the positive side, I think HP did a good job on the hardware build. Sound was a problem at first with lots of distortion but a BIOS upgrade and a switch to Windows drivers seemed to clean it up mostly. The system can run Office 365, but , as I mentioned above, when you're down to your last gigabyte, the system will soon come to a grinding halt. I very much wanted to like these, but the Windows bloat issue turned a working system into a brick. Ran Ubuntu 14.04 from a USB stick: had to set the BIOS to legacy. Ran into wireless problems and Flash issues but others with these issues say that these are fixed with 14.10. If Windows 10 doesn't cure the bloat issue, I'll toss Windows for Ubuntu or Linux Mint. Still working to get these to work...
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Any windows apps (just like windows phone's apps). Therefore, there may be alternative or apps that are not available on this laptop comparing to Apple products. (For example, there is not an Instagram app. However, there is an alternative app that literally is Instagram, but it's just named differently "Instapic". It loads your instagram account just like how it would on an Apple phone, so nothing bad happens to your account, it's the same. I would recommend the app from the app store as oppose to the website version of Instagram because the app allows you to search properly, upload/delete pictures, etc.) The only difference is it's fit to be compatible to the laptop.) There is an app store with numerous apps to download/install.
