I have a new HP laptop. [View all]

It is running Windows 10 s.

Should I switch from "s" to just Windows 10 so I can use chrome? I just don't like bing.

Also, I get constant drop downs from the top and notices from the bottom of the screen and from the side announcing shit I don't care about. It is just way tooooo busy.

Suggestions???
