If you switch out of Windows S mode it will support Chrome. Windows S mode supports apps from Microsoft Store, which doesn't have Chrome.

Hey there,

Thanks for your inquiry!

This IdeaPad meets the system requirements to run the Chrome browser; however, there is one obstacle that will prevent the browser software from installing. This is due to the system's operating system featuring Windows 11 Home in S mode.

To expand on the latter point, S mode is a more secure, lighter version of the Windows 11 Operating System that only allows the downloading of applications from the Microsoft Store. If you try to launch or install an executable or .exe file, the system prevents it.

Should you desire to switch to Windows 11 Home so you can use a browser alternative that isn't offered in the Microsoft Store, here is a link to a Microsoft webpage that shares how to do so: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-10-and-windows-11-in-s-mode-faq-851057d6-1ee9-b9e5-c30b-93baebeebc85
