It's uncanny how well that works, isn't it?

Exactly where you knew you wouldnāt lose itā¦
Iāve been there twice, and it somehow seems to be the ultimate relax and happy thing for me. I must have more inner redneck than I thought. Both times I was surprised at how happy it made me.

Just tried to give myself a vasectomy with some overhead stick welding.....
Landed directly on my bits...
I may have screamed like a little girl and yelled a lot of bad words as I was trying to shake the molten glob down my pant leg.

I wanted to do some CNC machining today but my laptop had other plans. Blue screen of death keeps popping up.
This laptop is old and I even bought it used so probably just gonna replace it and redownload Mach3 on its replacement.

Well I bought a replacement laptop today, and it has Windows 11 preinstalled on it but for whatever reason it wonāt let me switch out of S-mode. If youāre unfamiliar with it, being in S mode means you can only use apps from the Microsoft App Store, so in other words, no Mach3.
No Mach3, means this laptop is no use to me. Iāve tried everything I can think of, and nothing will let me switch out of S mode, so Iām taking it back to the store and going to get something else, preferably not with Windows 11 I guess.

We run a lot of Win 11 machines and don't have to do the App Store bull shit. I've not heard of "S" mode (I'm sure you've done your research about it and that's a new thing to me) before. Like you say, getting stuck with the bullshit App Store takes away ANY advantage to a PC. You might as well be buying a buying a Mac if you have to deal with that kind of bullshit. I'm not familiar at all with "store" bought stuff and buy from Dell directly. Maybe that's how I've avoided the BS?
Kind of makes sense that it's the "consumer" version.
Glad I don't have to deal with that stuff

Yeah my design computer has 11 on it and never gave me any of this grief.
I can get to the link option to where itās supposed to let me out of S mode, but when I click it it just says āa problem occurred and we cannot do the upgradeā and it gives a button for ātry againā but then doesnāt do anything after that.
Iāve tried updating everything, including all of Windows 11 itself and the App Store and anything updateable and nothing gives. Tried resetting the computer umpteen times.
Iām not real computer savvy though.
It wonāt even let me run Google Chrome, it wants to make you run Microsoft Edge.
Anyways, I did a hard-reset on the laptop and wiped any of my sign-in info and Iām just gonna try a different one. I *might* try it all again tomorrow before taking it back if I decide I have the patience, but thatās a decision for future me.
*edit*
I have no patience, and tried again.

Sounds like you should take it back to your retailer and get something without Windows Home. Sounds like it's a pain in the ass and not worth dealing with for you
