Windows S mode used to be a "feature" of a version of Windows 10 known as Windows 10 S. It was intended to be a competitor to Chrome OS, and limits the use of the computer to only signed Microsoft apps from the Store. While it could be argued as a very secure Windows, it also heavily cripples what you can use your computer for. When the project sorta flopped, Microsoft did not want to give up their precious computer crippling S mode, so now it curses almost every new cheap computer shipped with Windows 11 Home. It does not cost extra to get out of S Mode (although I believe Microsoft had originally planned to charge a fee), but you have to use a Microsoft Account to download the Get out of S Mode app from the Store. There are workarounds to get out without the MS Account. Why require the MS account? Why not make it a setting to exit this garbage? Why does it even continue to exist? Why punish low-income PC buyers with this junk?
