Downgrade 8.1 Pro to 7 Ultimate (not Pro)
Hi.I am currently running Windows 8.1 PRO on my main PC and 7 on another.I'd like to downgrade my Windows 8.1 Pro to 7 ultimate and keep all apps , files , settings just everything witouth having to re-install.I don't rly hate the Windows 8.1 menu as I got used to Win 8.0 menu in like 30 mins to 1 hour.I learned fast , but the new OS gave me problems , especially driver problems after a recent update of nVidia GT 220 video driver.I did system restore points and reinstalled an older version and after many tries , I fixed the dwm.exe problem.Basically dwm.exe from system32 couldn't start , so the taskbar was white and metro screen didn't work.I couldn't even connect to my network because it is metro based.I had to use rasphone.exe to do it.
So is there a way I can install 7 ultimate in this way?
I don't want to greet any more problems like this and also Win7 is much better designed for desktop.There's also an app which doesn't run on 8.1/8 but does on 7 and it has the aero glass that I love :) and missed because of 8.
