    When I purchased this Lenovo laptop, I thought I was getting a good laptop for the price but I have to say that its runs slow to me and i don't do much on it and I believe the speed of it should be faster. Not so happy with this purchase.

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. If you are getting slower than expected performance, whether in S-Mode or not, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programming errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom left of your Windows 10 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686. Lenovo

    Bought this at the last minute as an option for WFH. Wanted to keep home computer completely separate from work computer, and as a bookkeeper, I didn't want to use the work loaners as they were tiny and had no 10 key keypad. Good size and the keyboard is comfortable to use. For $200, didn't have a lot of expectations, but so far I've been pleasantly surprised. Hope I don't jinx it.

    I bought this for my friend T, who needed a laptop. She had been depending on her phone for years, and needed a larger screen and a real keyboard. Since I was not using it, I left the filthy Windows 10 on it. In my opinion Windows is for slow children to play video games, and stupid bureaucrats to tell lies with. Even with the worst excuse for an OS in history, this thing performs well.
