    rollback to windows 7 from 10


    Loaned Dell Latitude 6430 to sister and she updated it to windows 10. Three years ago. I bought the laptop used because it had 7 pro 64 bit from Dell and need it that way to properly run a program. I have no disks or otherwise. I need this laptop for one thing. How would one go to rollback to 7? Successfully. Everything is original from Dell. Need help. I thank you.

    Thanks Torchwood. Tried the link and download for that remedy but the site no longer provides 7.....at least on a regular basis. If memory serves there was a pop-up about try later or not at this time.

    What is the exact 7-character "service tag" number on it?

    Hi

    depending upon which download you select, there are different "options
    Heidoc only have LIMITED download >>values per month<<

    The Dell one is likely to last longer, as i said before because it includes the bloatware, ie Dell specific
    However the bonus is that it includes
    1) the OEM activation files
    2) its more upto date


    notes
    that HDD is a bit to small
    i'd opt for the 64bit option, you've plenty of RAM..... provided your system specs are correct
    and DONT run 2 AV's

    Windows 10 back to 7


    First thing I would say is THANK YOU. I appreciate your time and consideration. I ended up downloading a copy of Windows 7 32 from Archive.org. Took the HDD out and placed into a remote container connected to my other laptop. Wiped the middle partition and installed Windows 7 that way. So far it works as it should. Fingers crossed. Again.......thank you.
