    Home office laptop choice.

    Just needed a good reliable laptop for home office use; mine died. Husband picked this one for me. Very reasonable price. Great service at our local store with a pick up order. Love the laptop. Display is a nice size. like the touch screen and the 10 key pad. I work in the accounting field by trade so appreciate the speed of a 10 key. I am not a gamer but suppose this would work fine for that. Works great for my home record keeping, financial work, shopping, web browsing and emailing. I am not much on social media but do use Youtube for different things.

      Hello, Kariman. We are sorry to hear that you ran into an issue with your IdeaPad. To help remedy this and for clarification, this model IdeaPad comes with Windows 11 Home in S-Mode. Windows 11 in S-Mode – it 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. If you still have your IdeaPad and you desire to switch to Windows 11 Home to download necessary software, 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 Lenovo
