I purchased (another) MiniPC in the hope of using it for work. I did not realise that the new PC was UEFI only and had no option to install Windows 10. That was a HUGE mistake! Absolutely nothing private and I do not believe in the Cloud, I prefer to be responsible for my own data. Anyhow, I will not rattle on about the lack of privacy and the enormous amount of bloatware.
How can I install Windows 7 on the new MiniPC computer? I understand the technology of the upgrade, but feel more comfortable with Windows 7.
Appreciate suggestions other than 'upgrade'.
