Hello Cedric,
I thank you for the prompt reply and I apologize for taking so long to reply despite the fact I was looking for answers regarding the steps to downgrade Windows 10.
Actually, I wanted to know if there are any easy ways to downgrade before embarking onto the whole fresh Windows install which I assume is quite difficult to achieve. Like you mentioned below, there's little chance we can roll back.
Thank you for the steps you mentioned below Cedric. I will surely try it.
Regarding the drivers, unfortunately you have to download all the drivers again especially if they are old software. I had quite few problems regarding that. I am glad it is working fine now.
Thanks again Cedric.
Kind regards,
Shelly Hermia Bhujun

I personally, never tried to roll back from Windows 10.It's true, there's a work around to roll back to your previous OS after the 30-days time but I can'tconfirm if this works. (
http://www.thewindowsclub.com/rollback-windows-10-after-30-days)But there's a hitch, you need to backup some folders from your root drive before the 30-days time ends.
So if you haven't done this, there's little chance you can roll back. To go back to a previous version of Windows, a fresh install would be your only option according to me.
Apart from the link above did you find other methods?
PS: Just before you decide to abandon Windows 10 completely, try to fresh install it.Then check for updates and make sure you all your drivers are installed correctly by going to the device manager console (WinKey + R > devmgmt.msc). Your system should be stable by then.

I was wondering if anyone has tried to downgrade Windows 10 after one month? Why one month- because I know that Microsoft has the option where you can still revert back to your previous Windows version in case you don't find Windows 10 suitable. I tried to Google and got tons of information but unfortunately it was too bulky or technical. Is there any simple and easy way to do it or formatting the device to re-install Windows 7 is what you recommend?
Kind regards,
