I’m trying to switch out of S mode on my laptop but the App Store isn’t letting me because it needs to be updated. Then it takes me to the I’m guessing updated Microsoft App Store but it says above “this app has been blocked due to company policy” and will not let me open it.

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Microsoft Store

    Hello Devin,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community and I'll be glad to assist you today.

    This error "This app has been blocked due to company policy" can occur from domain restrictions and changes made to the Local Group Policy. To better assist you, we would like to know the following information.

    1. Are you connected to a domain network?
    2. May I please know the version or edition of the Windows operating system installed on your device?

    (To find the version, type winver in the search bar on the taskbar and click enter - post a screenshot here)

    Meanwhile, you could try these recommendations below to see if it works:

    1. Reset the Microsoft Store cache.
    a. Click Windows + R key,

    b. Type wsreset.exe and click Ok.

    c. A command prompt window will open and closes automatically.

    d. Now, go to the activation page and select 'Switch out of S mode'.

    e. Select switch out of s mode in the Microsoft store.

    f. See if it upgrades. If not, try restarting your PC.

    2. Perform a System recovery.

    If you are still experiencing issues,

    a. Go to Settings.

    b. Select System > Recovery.

    c. Select 'Reinstall now' on Fix problems using Windows update.

    Hello biru singh mayal

    Aim Schan

    Maybe this will help
    to your annoyance
    type win store.
    if it doesn't work, go to save mode and remove unnecessary ones to get working mode. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/

    Devin, thank you for your reply.

    If you are using a customized email address like ******@your-domain.com instead of Personal addresses @outlook.com or @hotmail.com, you could delete that email address from your PC first.

    I hope this information helps. If you have any questions, please let me know and I will be happy to help you further.

    Best regards,
