[chirp_users] Windows 10 and 11 S Mode

[Kerry Whittle]

Nicola,

I use chirp both on my Mac and on a Dell Inspiron 15 3000. It came to me in S - mode but I found a setting that let me take it into regular Windows Home mode. S-mode is just a security mode that won’t allow you to load software except from the Microsoft store. 

As far was the Surface goes, I can’t tell you. That’s why I bought the Dell - because I’m sure that it will run anything I want that’s for Windows and is ham related.

I read through everything I could. I’m tech savvy but know nothing about Ham Radios. I don’t want him to purchase a computer that he can’t download and run CHIRP on. Thank you!
