Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.S Mode is supposed to be "secure," but I don't like it and turn off S Mode. You can find instruction online -- it's easy to do. The MICROSOFT SOFTWARE SUBSCRIPTION is open for dispute. I know someone with the exact same HP laptop who only got one month with hers, but when I open OFFICE, it says I'm good for a year. If anybody else knows the truth, please post here!
