Yay I am finally out of S mode. To fix it got the windows store > downloads and updates > click microsoft store app > click the three dots next to launch and click update. After that the page should no longer be blank.

Whenever I open the Microsoft store to switch out of S-mode. A Button reading "learn more" appears, however whenever I click this the store loads a completely blank gray screen, is there another option to switch out of S-mode, or is the link to the store broken?

2019-07-31T15:07:04+00:00 I just bought my laptop on Amazon and am about to send it back as it is completely useless being locked in thise mode. If Microsoft really wanted to they could find a way to make it work asap.

2019-07-31T03:39:05+00:00 Same issue, this is ridiculous. I did notice however on mine when I was downloading chrome it gave m the option to switch from S mode. When I got to the screen to "get" windows 10 home, I was confused thinking I already had it. I closed the screen out. Now i only get the grey screen. Microsoft needs to fix this. I also bought my lenovo ideapad for work. I have to be able to download other applications that are not on the MS store. Please fix this.
