So I have a good laptop, a little over 1k when i bought it, but that is not the point. I decided to try out the new, super awesome possum Windows 10 Beta. Biggest. Mistake, of my life. Everything at first looked nice and dandy until about 3 minutes into the experience when Cortona decided to straight up delete Google Chrome. How and can she even do that? After that crap she decides to stop working entirely. Can’t even bring up “spartan,” for an internet browser. So i was literally stuck at my windows desktop trying to get something to pop up. After about 15 good minutes of frustration I decide to do a system restore. Just thought maybe something went terribly wrong during the setup process. NOPE. Same BS. As of right now i just want to get my windows 8.1 back but for some reason its giving me a very hard time. I try get the ISO file to my flash drive but it says “Oops, Sorry, We F&%$ up,” and self close before I have a chance to read the small paragraph below it. And when it does decide to work it says I need a product key but I don't have one because of course my PC already came with windows 8. Can you guys provide me the proper links so I can get my life back together. Please.

 

Side Note: when I was able to watch video the videos were glitching every 3-8 minutes or so which made for so very funny 2 second gifs of linus. I think I recorded one of them with my phone and I’ll try to upload it when everything is fixed.

Did you delete your Windows 10 partition?

Your not supposed to install Windows 10, unless your tech orientated and know what your doing and certainly not for your main OS. Just re install Windows 8 with the code on your computer.
