Spin 14-How can I recover my laptop to work in tablet mode with auto screen rotate, Windows update

The latest Windows update "screwed my machine" it no longer works in Tablet mode with auto screen rotate.

In desperation I went into recover mode and wiped the computer and re-downloaded the OS. When the Windows 11 reinstalled, it without prompting, downloaded the Bl**dy windows update that I wanted to get rid of.

Can anyone at Acer give me the URL for the Windows 11 image that was used on my Aspire 3 Spin 14 when I bought it in October 2024.

I am a retired computer engineer and was an Acer dealer for over 30 years.

I use the Spin 14 as a device from which to read music and tablet mode and auto rotation of the screen are vital. Everything was working as I require until the Microsoft Update to Win 11😫

What is the full model of the machine?

Try to open the device manger to see if the drivers are installed and working correctly.

Lots of times when Windows does a major update like that, it changes the settings for tablet mode. Move it to tablet mode then go into settings and look for the rotation lock.
