Default Windows Ten



Since changing to Windows Ten I have been unable to download photos from my cameras, having an IPAD Air photos are automatically transferred to Dropbox, is there any way I can dump this and revert back to Windows 7.

Cheers .

Good old microsoft doing it's stuff again.
We shall pray for some closure to this issue to restore your faith in this seemingly evil system we survive in called life.

Otherwise, revert back to a system that does exactly what you want rather than falling for win 10 corruptions.

Good luck, but please don't try Holy water !

Cheers Father John Cardinal H57.

Ermm OK. Alternatively just uninstal the horror that is 10 by going into add remove programs and clicking the go back to 7, unless of course 30 days have passed in which case you can't and are stuck with 10 (BTW don't think of just buying a Windows 7 disk and reinstalling if this is the case, your serial number will be invalid (MS invalidate your Windows 7 key after 30 days which is why you can't go back after then).

Bout time we all threw Microsoft out of the window and moved to a distro run by decent people.
It actually is here already.................. Linux. Plenty of choice for differing purposes all and the more it's used the more software will be available.

I've had no problems with Windows 10 YET, but now I've posted this in fully expecting my laptop to implode the second I turn it on

You can revert but it`s not straight forward.

Couldn't agree more Trevor, Linux is on all my PC's bar one which I'll keep Win 10 on (I'm not sure why) I'm going to partition the drive & install the new Linux Mint Sarah which is coming out shortly.
