Hi gurus,
Please how do I downgrade my windows 10 to 8 or 7?.
My dell laptop with windows 10 always run background updates which I have tried to put off the auto update and the updates always finish up my data whenever connected to my phone via WiFi. I will appreciate your swift response guys.

Hello
Before I go ahead with my suggestions, chances are

1 . You've tried the "turn on metred connection" and you probably didn't find it... No! I'm so sure you didn't find it

2. You've also "disabled" auto-updates. Why is the word, disabled in quotes? Because that main download still goes on in win 10.

*let's now move on...

You're going to try one last thing- [b] tweaking the registry[b/]


So, here we go >

Press Win key+R > in the run box (I need a better name), type "regedit" without the quotes. This opens the registry editor.

In the registry editor, Navigate this path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\DefaultMediaCost

Right click "DefaultMediaCost key" > select "Permissions" > this takes you to the security tab.

On the security tab, click "advanced" button. Click the "change" button next to "Trustedinstsller".

In the "enter object name" box, type Administrators, click the "Check Names" button to make sure you're typing the correct object.Click OK.

On the "Advanced Security Settings for DefaultMediaCost" , check the "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects"Click Apply > OK.

On "Permissions for DefaultMediaCost" , select the "Administrators group" , be sure to check the "allow Full Control" box . click Apply > OK.

On the DefaultMediaCost key, there are different entries, including those for 3G, 4G, Default, Ethernet, and WiFi with their default data values: 1 or 2.

data value 1 means that the connection type is non-metered,
data value of 2 means that the connection type is metered.
Double-click the Ethernet DWORD (32-bit) Value key, and change the value to 2.

*Do same for Wi-Fi.
>>>restart your laptop <<<

This explanation I just gave is from an article on windowscentral treating the same issue. I must say it saved a lot of my Internet data.

So before you contemplate a downgrade, consider this registry tweak.

*If you still experience huge data consumption after the above tweak, then you can go ahead with your downgrade...

To downgrade, you'll need a copy of Windows on DVD or flash drive.

Ofourse, to create a bootable DVD or flash go here:

Then here's how to format to win 8:

Hi house! I'm having problems with my system. The Start menu doesn't pop up again. I have googled the problem but I was unable to solve it. I had wanted to downgrade it to Win 7 but it didn't allow me. Kindly help a brother to solve this problem.. Thanks in anticipation..

Razak5:


Hi,
Re-installing the OS will solve that.

*cheers *

LethargiQue:

Please help.

My HP envy TouchPad is problematic..


It stops on its own accord, I checked on the drivers list in device manager and I can't find the hardware..

It's not a hardware problem.

I keep reinstalling the driver, I don't know what to do.

pls help ooo.. though have asked this same question but didn't get any solution.. got a laptop having window 10 .After sometime it shows I shld update it, which I tried doing but the rate at which it consumes my data is just to much.. so my questions are, is there any other way I can update it or minimize the rate at which it consumes my data??

Razak5:


Hi there...

There's one sure way I was able to disable mine and that is by tweaking the registry...

Let me tell you before hand, that
1. the article is long. So if you aren't a PC person, just give someone your laptop to help in following the guidelines.

2. This registry hack is not so complicated but you should also be careful, don't try what you don't know!

So shall we?

Before I go ahead with my suggestions, chances are

1 . You've tried the "turn on metred connection" and you probably didn't find it... No! I'm so sure you didn't find it

2. You've also "disabled" auto-updates. Why is the word, disabled in quotes? Because that main download still goes on in win 10.

Hi, there...

Dis one that you're writing in red ink


Try these:
1. Do a restore on your system

[I] The link below is from the tech and gadgets section of the BT site discussing system restore. I figured it'll be useful[/I]

http://home.bt.com/tech-gadgets/computing/windows-10/how-to-fix-windows-10-problems-with-system-restore-11364008291943

Or

2. Use the "reset your PC" option - you'll find a guide in the same link above.

There's one issue though, win 10 does not automatically create restore point. So, if restore points aren't available, then option 2 is way to go.

And yes, it might be a hardware issue. A faulty keyboard or a keyboard that's about to fail can cause your track pad to stop occasionally.

Ps: when you say "touch pad", guess you don't mean the touch screen...

As always, going through lengthy articles can be time consuming. Should you need any help, just Holla on WhatsApp on 08128714767.
