Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed for dynamic extension of restricted software applications after an operating system mode switch. An example non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a computing device to detect a switch from a restricted operating system to an unrestricted operating system, and in response to detecting the switch, invoke a dormant executable to install an unrestricted application in the unrestricted operating system.
