Windows 11 - Can't switch out of S mode
When I follow the steps in the Microsoft Store to try to switch out of S mode, all I get is a message:
"Something happened and we couldn't start the upgrade"
and a Try Again button.

2025-03-02T16:15:55+00:00 Hi,
i am writing because I had my acer aspire go 14 laptop on windows 10 when I first got it on Nov 2024. So I turned off s mode and downloaded the sims 4 and the EA app on the laptop. After a couple months it had told me to update the laptop so I updated the laptop to windows 11 and some other updates. one it had finished I didn't know that it has gone back to s mode auto so I tried to play sims but it didn't work. So I went to the app store and tried to turn s mode off. but it didn't work, it always got stuck on the 'working on it' screen. thank you for reading and is there anyway to help me !!!!!!!
Thank you for reading.
