Well good news, I finally found the way to remove that Windows 11 Home S Mode on this ASUS Vivobook 14 inch laptop, I was up all during the night working on this laptop but it's now working right, and I downloaded Google Chrome on it which is why I wanted that S mode removed, I'm using this laptop now 8-)
I almost bought a M4 Macbook Pro 14 inch but my very smart wife said forget it pal you're too dumb to ever learn how to use anything Apple, you'll be returning it within 2 weeks, oh wow she knows me very well lol 8-)

Now that I have the new Asus Windows 11 laptop working, how do I copy or transfer Garmin maps to it.
I downloaded and installed the Basecamp program from Garmin website onto the new laptop, and I found out how to backup the Desktop PC Basecamp MY COLLECTION data to a thumb drive file and how to restore that backup file to the new laptop, but then how do I copy or transfer the Garmin North America Maps 2024.20 that's on my Desktop PC to this new laptop?

Turn off Basecamp and fire up Garmin express. Connect your Garmin and select download maps to your computer. A copy of the latest map for your device will be downloaded and appear in maps on Basecamp when it has downloaded. Don't run express and Basecamp at the same time.
