Windows 10 in S Mode

Microsoft-Verified Security
With Windows 10 in S mode, your favorite applications, such as Office, Evernote and Spotify are available from the Microsoft Store where they’re Microsoft-verified for security. Feel secure when you’re online. Microsoft Edge, your default browser, gives you more protection against phishing and socially-engineered malware than Chrome or Firefox.

Switching out of S Mode

We recommend that you back up all your files onto an external hard drive before switching OS. Switching out of S mode is free of charge.
