I know but how do I use that to go back to win 7?

i'm not saying you can go back using that im saying that after you go from win 8 to win 7 there's a folder in the hdd root called windows.old with all your stuff to go back to win7 you must have a cd, pen or recovery partition and a valid key

So today i just installed the windows 8 Enterprise evaluation 90 day trial.

 

aaaaaand I hate it but now I don't know how to go back to windows 7 that I had before PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!! I DON'T WANT TO WAIT 90 DAYS!!!!

The year is 20XX. Everyone plays Fox at TAS levels of perfection. Because of this, the winner of a match depends solely on port priority. The RPS metagame has evolved to ridiculous levels due to it being the only remaining factor to decide matches.

Only Abate, Axe, and Wobbles can save us.

Be careful.... There are some people here who like Windows 8 way too much and will be seriously and irrationally offended by you not loving it as well.

Do you have a Windows 7 disc that you could use to restore it back?  And more importantly, the original serial key?

Why do people keep upgrading without backing up first?....

Or trying it out on a separate partition or something before making the commitment, cmon think about these things -_-

 

You can't go back to windows 7 and keep all your files, you have to do a clean re-install, unless you have a recovery partition/cd etc

Can someone explain why windows 8 is so bad? I haven't used the start screen in years... There are so many things that are better. I do not understand...

 

Btw, If you do not know how to back-up your data and install a new operating system you probably should not do it on a whim...

win 8 feels wrong when you start using it but after that period it gets better

Could say the exact same about hating Windows 8. Irrationality is prevalent in it's hate.

Please, stop saying things like they are fact.

Everyone who likes windows 8 is doing this.

Windows 8 vs Windows 7 is largely down to preference in the way they feel.
