Rollback for 30 days?

[BrianDrab]

I had an OP that posted the following in response to a question I asked them.

Yes absolutely, I can try that. It's a newer laptop so there isn't as much stuff in there I was just trying to avoid it if possible, ofc. However I'll have to research how to find the ISO/installer since it just ran from Windows 8. Would rolling back to 8 and then again forward to 10 work? Windows 10 gives you the option to rollback for 30 days.

Are you guys aware of this? That was news to me.

Confirmed by Microsoft in one of their Support Article.

Go back to your previous version of Windows - Microsoft Windows

Yes this is true, also if you delete the "Windows.old" folder or run a program such as CCleaner (which may delete it... depend on your settings) you won't have the option to go back within those 30 days.

Yeah and there are already some pretty good tutorials out there on it.
