Notes

Before relegation, there are a few issues that you need to be aware of. First, you only have one month to decide if you want to roll back to a previous version of the operating system. Once this expiration date is over, you can only use your own manually created backup to downgrade.

In addition, Microsoft currently only mentions the choice to downgrade to Windows 7, 8, and 8.1. As for whether it can be downgraded to Windows XP, we still don't know.

Preparation

Before you downgrade your system, you should make sure that the data in your computer is safe and check if the system can be downgraded. As with other large changes at the system level, you should first back up important files stored on your computer (especially the system disk).

In addition, only Windows 10 that is directly upgraded from Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 can be downgraded. Looking for a folder named "Windows.old" in the system disk is a quick way to judge. This folder contains the files necessary to roll back to the previous version. If you do not have this folder in your system disk, Then you can't downgrade.

Specific Actions

Open the Settings panel in the Start menu, click “Update & Security", then select “Restore” in the sidebar of the window. Then you will see multiple recovery options in the window, click “ go back to the previous Windows version & rdquo;

Before performing the rollback operation, the system will ask you to choose the reason for the downgrade through the popup window. After the answer is complete, the rollback program will also let you choose the type of file you want to keep. Then, the system will confirm for the last time whether you really want to start the process. After clicking Confirm, the rollback program will officially start.

After the rollback operation is completed, you may encounter important file loss, and the previous backup will come in handy. If the rollback process fails and you are unable to access the system, you can use the machine's own recovery tool or USB flash drive to reinstall the operating system.
