Yeah me too, I have GTA Vice City running slow because I don't have its default screen resolution which is 640x860 and my screen resolution in my windows 10 are only two, 1366x768 and 1024x768, this is horseshit.
You just need to format C:\. Of course if you put everything in it you gonna lose it in windows.old, So get your data into D:\ or other partition and only windows gonna wipe down
Me too, also if you know. WIN 7 SYSTEM USE:500MB AND WIN 10 SYSTEM USE 200MB OR 500 MB i have 1,7GB and 1,2 usable on win 7. In win 10 i have 1,7 GB and 700MB usable. WHERE IS 500MB!!!
yeah i agree! when my asked which windows update u want? i thought windows 10 must be the best, now i cant play csgo, minecraft, battle field or other games! now i realize how wrong i was!! how can Microsoft be so dumb
Windows 10 is currently having bugs that interfere with the user, microsoft support has bots answering instead of a real person chatting, I have my windows 10 key but my windows 7 product key is OEM and I am basically locked outside of my own computer, THATS IT WITH WINDOWS! Going to get Linux, enough of this nonsense.
Tanks man Just do what's in the video and don't worry about backup unless you have a genuine iso file and power backup (I mean you live in a area where power runs all the time). Got window 7back. One plus thing I wanted to go back was windows 10 had slowed my pc and I couldn't run photoshop and GTA SA even with minimal settings.
Just what I thought; scrape nasty Windows 10 from my hard drive and reboot with Windows 7. I followed your tips and can now use my computer for work, just like before the upgrade. After a day of work, my computer-my baby-works fast and steady again. It's not that I do not like the new program; its simply because my compute was freezing up non-stop ever since the upgrade. I had many people chime it ways to fix the problem, but none of them worked. My computer freezes up during start up now. It sucks that a free upgrade (advertised incessantly on my computer) without a notice of free 30 day trial make my baby crash. My fault for falling for the word FREE- I have learned nothing.
Actually, when you initiate the system reset option, Windows will give you the option to reset the system with the version of Windows it came with. I bought a Windows 8.1 HP Pavilion laptop and upgraded it to Windows 10. When I saw this option, I could go back to Windows 8.1 whenever I want to it seems.
I was using Windows 7 then I upgraded to Windows 10 then after 1 month the option for going back to Windows 7 disappears, if i install Windows 7 like this video did, will my files on Windows 10 deleted?
Hi, I have the old windows folder but I do not have the option to downgrade back to windows 7, so what steps should I take in this case so I don't lose any files.thanks in advance for your help.
Great job! Unfortunately after installed window 10 and 2 weeks later the option of going back window 7 disappear makes me mad. For now I'll use Window 10, my plan is to buy Apple and I'll never buy any PC with window OS again.
Anybody here who upgrade his/her laptop to Win10 and some drivers doesn't work pretty well that you wanna go back to Win7 yet still afraid that it may fail during reinstallation?

I purchased a laptop with Windows 10 preinstalled. I want to downgrade to Windows 8. I purchased a Windows 8 product key. I tried to change the product key, but it said I was already running a genuine version of Windows and wouldn't let me downgrade. What the hell do I do?
windows 10 is completely shit right now I have the windows.old but I don't have the "Go back to windows 7" SOMEONE PLEZZZZZZZZ HELOPSADD ME EEEE (am done with this shit of windows 10)
Last thing if you wanna upgrade your system to Windows 10 RTM. Download windows 7 iso then upgrade (DO CLEAN INSTALL RIP FILES.). Then upgrade to Windows 10 RTM.
have you tried looking for the updated wifi drivers for your machine. Make sure to uninstall the current one and install the new one that is supported under Windows 10
I get an error: "The product key you entered appears to be for software pre-installed by the device manufacturer. Please contact the device manufacturer for software recovery options". WTF?!

When you buy a new laptop you have two options, Windows 10 and Windows 10(Pre-installed). Does that have any effect or can you downgrade to windows 7 on both?
+Oliwer Glixelli it seems like the pre-installed one is the one that the store upgraded to and the Windows 10 is the one that the manufacturer sent them to sale. But you can always check in the floor if you are able to go back.

Question here if your still reading comments: when I downgrade to windows 8.1 by downloading the iso file and got in I don’t have internet connection can you explain how to fix it
Pretty sure, file libraries are pretty much universal, it uses a file system, not a BIOS, thats why flash drives work universally, try plugging a usb with pngs from windows 10 into a completely different computer, like a mac, same deal. 😉
What if all I want to do is keep my default Windows 10, and have Windows 7 as a secondary desktop, just to start games or other programs that require Windows 7?
I did upgrade my acer laptop (aspire v3-471g) a year ago, from windows 7 to windows 10. Now I'm having a big problem with windows 10 because it's working too slow and i cannot use properly the applications and software I installed. Now my second problem is that I cannot find the "get back to windows 7" but I had the WINDOWS.OLD folder. How can I solve this problem? I really need an answer. I can't work properly with my homeworks and projects because of this bugs and errors plus "loading problems".
so if I copied the recovery partition file to a usb hard drive (as a backup for the recovery partition), and I don't have the windows.old folder, I just plug the usb hard drive and start a recovery process?
When I click on the download Windows 7 link. It just brings me to a white page, so I waited, watched some LSPDFR for about 20 mins. Came back to the page and nothing happened.
uhmm hello sir may i ask. what if my original os is windows 8 only and not 8.1 where should i get it am i gonna get it at the asus site, for my lappy is asus
I made a windows 8.1 back up disc on a flash drive, which is what it came with new 8 mos. ago. Because it told me to before I took the free windows 10 upgrade. Now, can I just plug that in and it will do the rest to get my old OS back?
i buy a laptop dell insparon and come with window 10 i wanna install window 7 how can i do that? i already buy the license and burn the iso on a dvd please help me
Hi bro! Uh I am using windows 10 on my PC now.. But i want to downgrade to windows 7, without my files getting deleted.. How am i supposed to do that? Plus, can i use my laptop's key and use it during the activation of win7 in my PC?
I have windows.old folder but i dont have an option in settings , do I need to download 8.1 windows from that page? or just put windows.old in usb and install it ?
hello i go to the website you are on. my laptop is 2010(6years old) and i type in the activiation code(which is seeable enough) and it does the validitation process. however, it says error has happend during the process! why?
Can you do this without the Windows.old folder? Mine does not have it. Also for the product key it would not take the one I found with Windows 10, however it did accept the one I found with internet explorer. After I tried to " setup"and had the product key entered, it said some error occurred. So right now I am emptying my flash drive and trying it all over again. Should I just give up already or is there still hope?
If I am doing this on a desktop and not a laptop what type of drivers would I be losing? Because im not too sure all what my PC is made up of and would hate to run into any issues. Like would I lose audio drivers, wifi capability and stuff like that? Or does saving my Desktop, Downloads, and Documents folders keep all that stuff for me? I really wanna downgrade but am scared of what might happen.
My problem is I have the Windows.old but after the forced update, I no longer have admin rights to it. I have tried everything to override, but DENIED.
i did what was required to go back to windows 8.1 but its still windows 10 and now i don't have the folder that says "windows.old" anymore in my folder. please help me!
+BTNHD for product key it says the product key is for software pre installed by device manufacturer and wont let me install windows 7. i have windows.old but there is no option in recevey system..
Want to go to Windows 7 go to setting Update And Security Recovery Restart now for Advanced setup and go to Options and every Advanced options it will show u Go Back to Earlier Build
I have a custom built pc and i have 2 drives. My ssd has my operating system and maybe like one game as far as big files go and the hdd has all my important stuff. If i go through with your video will i still have to make a backup of my hdd if my os is on my ssd?
I had windows 7 and gave it my IT guy to install cad on my computer. several months later, I upgraded to windows 10. Had no issues, until some of my computer parts are starting to fail. shitty thing is when i try to download new up to date drivers it doesn't support win. 10. so now I want to go back to win. 7 but watching all different videos, it sounded like to me that I have to wipe my hard drive clean, in which i lose my cad programs and have to reinstall the O.S. Am I understanding that correctly. I don't want to wipe my cad programs/files. Is there a way on doing that?
@BTNHD So basically what you are saying is that if you want to downgrade after 2 harsh months with windows 10, you would either have to buy a new copy of windows 7/8.1 to get back? At least if you are like most people and throw away the box the windows 7 cd came in;;
+Brage Skaaug correct, some have been lucky to try to downgrade when the month was over and it worked, so I would try to use Windows 10 downgrade/previous feature and see if it works. If not, you have to get yourself a copy of Windows 7 or Windows 8 and re-install the OS back into your machine.
ughh after finishing the first step of installing the new windows the computer restarts and puts up windows boot manager and says that there has been an error in the windows version i am installing. Don't workkkk

When I click on the download Windows 7 link. It just brings me to a white page, so I waited, watched some LSPDFR for about 20 mins. Came back to the page and nothing happened.
uhmm hello sir may i ask. what if my original os is windows 8 only and not 8.1 where should i get it am i gonna get it at the asus site, for my lappy is asus

I made a windows 8.1 back up disc on a flash drive, which is what it came with new 8 mos. ago. Because it told me to before I took the free windows 10 upgrade. Now, can I just plug that in and it will do the rest to get my old OS back?

Hi bro! Uh I am using windows 10 on my PC now.. But i want to downgrade to windows 7, without my files getting deleted.. How am i supposed to do that? Plus, can i use my laptop's key and use it during the activation of win7 in my PC?
+Anshuman Jain (Aashu) did the PC come with Windows 10? or did it come with Windows 7 and you upgraded to Windows 10?
+BTNHD my pc came with windows 7
+BTNHD my pc came with windows 10 when i bought it online
I have windows.old folder but i dont have an option in settings , do I need to download 8.1 windows from that page? or just put windows.old in usb and install it ?
If you don't have a product key there's a copy on thepiratebay
hello
i go to the website you are on. my laptop is 2010(6years old) and i type in the activiation code(which is seeable enough) and it does the validitation process. however, it says error has happend during the process!
why?
Hello sir I have the windows ( old ) folder on the local disk but in the operating system I can’t find the back to windows 8
i upgraded from windows 7 to 8. i have the old folder too but i don't have an option to go back
if you go back to windows 7 or 8.1 does that mean that all of your steam game's memory gone?
Can you do this without the Windows.old folder? Mine does not have it. Also for the product key it would not take the one I found with Windows 10, however it did accept the one I found with internet explorer. After I tried to " setup"and had the product key entered, it said some error occurred. So right now I am emptying my flash drive and trying it all over again. Should I just give up already or is there still hope?
If I am doing this on a desktop and not a laptop what type of drivers would I be losing? Because im not too sure all what my PC is made up of and would hate to run into any issues. Like would I lose audio drivers, wifi capability and stuff like that? Or does saving my Desktop, Downloads, and Documents folders keep all that stuff for me? I really wanna downgrade but am scared of what might happen.
i think i have the folder of my old operating system but your recording is to blurry so cant see end of windows. what
My problem is I have the Windows.old but after the forced update, I no longer have admin rights to it. I have tried everything to override, but DENIED.
this is really helpful thank you so much
i did what was required to go back to windows 8.1 but its still windows 10 and now i don't have the folder that says "windows.old" anymore in my folder. please help me!
+BTNHD for product key it says the product key is for software pre installed by device manufacturer and wont let me install windows 7. i have windows.old but there is no option in recevey system..
Want to go to Windows 7 go to setting Update And Security Recovery Restart now for Advanced setup and go to Options and every Advanced options it will show u Go Back to Earlier Build
that means to go back to a build of *10*
i have the "windows.old" but dont have the option of recover to windows 7 -.-
I have a custom built pc and i have 2 drives. My ssd has my operating system and maybe like one game as far as big files go and the hdd has all my important stuff. If i go through with your video will i still have to make a backup of my hdd if my os is on my ssd?
No, but make sure you pick the correct drive for your operating system to go to.
+BTNHD what's the site that you opened on Microsoft Edge?
I have recovery drive of Windows 8.1. And while in recovery option I don't get go back to Previous version. Now what shall I do ?.?
I had windows 7 and gave it my IT guy to install cad on my computer. several months later, I upgraded to windows 10. Had no issues, until some of my computer parts are starting to fail. shitty thing is when i try to download new up to date drivers it doesn't support win. 10. so now I want to go back to win. 7 but watching all different videos, it sounded like to me that I have to wipe my hard drive clean, in which i lose my cad programs and have to reinstall the O.S. Am I understanding that correctly. I don't want to wipe my cad programs/files. Is there a way on doing that?
@BTNHD
So basically what you are saying is that if you want to downgrade after 2 harsh months with windows 10, you would either have to buy a new copy of windows 7/8.1 to get back? At least if you are like most people and throw away the box the windows 7 cd came in;;
+Brage Skaaug correct, some have been lucky to try to downgrade when the month was over and it worked, so I would try to use Windows 10 downgrade/previous feature and see if it works. If not, you have to get yourself a copy of Windows 7 or Windows 8 and re-install the OS back into your machine.
before one month end i think if you put it in the desktop wait one month then re put it and downgrade maybe it will work
ughh after finishing the first step of installing the new windows the computer restarts and puts up windows boot manager and says that there has been an error in the windows version i am installing. Don't workkkk
