  • QuestionCan I download Microsoft edge and Google Chrome on this laptop?

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Hey, Yes, you Microsoft Edge is preinstalled, and you can download Chrome web browser, but it takes a couple steps. This is because this model IdeaPad Slim 3i ships with Windows 11 Home in S mode preinstalled. For context, 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 to be able to download Chrome and other applications of your choosing outside of the Microsoft Store, here is a link to a Microsoft Support 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 | Please feel free to reach out to us with any other questions!

  • QuestionCan you ues this laptop to make /work on 3d animation?

    Asked by Yjonn.

    • Answer Hey Yjonn, We don't recommend the IdeaPad 1, 3, 5 or IdeaPad Slim 3 or Slim 5 laptops for 3D animation work, due to the demanding performance requirements to run most animation software. These IdeaPad laptops generally will not meet the system requirements to run the software effectively. If you'd like, you can share the title of the animation platform you'd like to use with our laptops, and we'd be happy to help you find the right system to run what you need. Please feel free to reach out to us with any other questions!
