CAN YOU PLS PUT ME BACK IN S PLS
Hi there,
While you cannot return to S mode once you've switched out, many of S mode's protections can be enabled through the Windows Security app and settings. Please try enabling those protections whether your PC is currently in S mode or not.
You should make it clear that you cant switch back into s mode and make it so u can switch back into s mode .

Hi there - thanks for the reply and feedback, LolaMartin. The Store page shown before Switch mentions that the Switch is one-way, and that PCs cannot return to S mode. As a suggestion, you might consider using App & browser control settings along with Windows Defender and Windows Security to ramp up the security profile of your PC, even when not in S mode.
okay but i tried to reinstall windows and do a factory reset and it wont let me because it says i dont have enough space. ive only had the computer for 2 weeks and have uninstalled everything i downloaded since i got it and it still wont work reset to s mode.

Hi BRandonCArnes1,
Sorry to hear you're having trouble. Once a PC has switched out of S mode, S mode cannot be reenabled.
As I mentioned in my reply earlier, you might try enabling additional app & browser control settings to strengthen the protection of your PC. Read more here:
