You can easily downgrade to Windows 10 within the trial period from the Recovery options. If this feature is not available to you, you can perform a clean install to downgrade. Today, we will discuss these processes in detail and help you get back to Windows 10.
How to Downgrade Windows Your Windows Version?
As discussed earlier, there are mainly two ways to downgrade to Windows 10; Using the Recovery options or performing a fresh Windows install.
Using Recovery Option
The recovery options in Windows allow you to reset the PC to the default configurations and also revert to the previous builds. If you have upgraded to Windows 11 recently, you can also downgrade to Windows 10 using this feature. If you are well within the 10 days trial period, you can extend this time to 60 days and use the recovery option to downgrade at any moment during that time.
Reinstall Windows 10
If you are unable to use the Go back feature due to the end of the trial period, you can also downgrade by clean installing Windows 10. This process will delete all of your files. Therefore, it is advised that you back up your files before performing the Windows 10 installation. Once you have completed the download of the iso file, click on Finish. Now, let’s move on to how to install Windows 10 using the ISO.
Using Bootable Media
You can clean install Windows 10 by creating a bootable media as well. If you have upgraded to Windows 11 by performing a clean install, then you need to do the same to downgrade to Windows 10 as well. All you need is Bootable media ( for instance, a USB drive) and the ISO file of Windows 10. It is again advised that you back up your files before you perform this installation.
