What is "S mode"? null

Windows 10 S-Mode provides added security by only allowing APPs available ( and therefore certified by Microsoft) at the Microsoft Store. If you don't need the added security or you need to install APPs not available at the Microsoft Store, you can switch to standard Windows 10 Home 64-bit Operating System, at no additional cost. The Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 Laptop, model number 81W1018XUS, ships with Windows 10 S-Mode 64-bit Operating System. If you choose to switch out of S-Mode to Windows 10 Home, it is a one-way switch, you can not switch back to S-Mode.
