    My understanding is that if you have Windows 10S or 11S, you can only load programs from the Microsoft Store. How then would someone be able to load MalwareBytes AntiMalware on the machine?

    Thanks,

    The replies were not all that helpful. The first reply was an automated response and did not answer the question.
    The next response was a link to take the computer out of S mode. Perhaps the person doesn't want to do that.

    The last response was the most helpful.
    So you are correct in assuming that S mode doesn't allow you to install Malwarebytes on a Windows 10S or Windows 11S computer.
