Solve : Change Windows 8 to Windows 7??? |
Answer» <html><body><p>I am probably asking a question that was once answered but maybe someone can help me. My 10 year old got a desktop PC (HP Pavilion Slimline 400) last week for her b-day. It came loaded with Windows 8. <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/yuck-7384787" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about YUCK">YUCK</a>!! Can anyone tell me how/if I can "downgrade" to Windows 7 without having to pay anything. Please help.You need a Windows 7 DVD. You would then <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/format-11876" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FORMAT">FORMAT</a> the drive and install Windows 7. You're better off leaving it alone.Start with Classic Shell to make it look like Win7 or WinXP.<br/><a href="http://classicshell.net/">http://classicshell.net/</a>I am not technical and want to rip my hair out with this Windows 8. I actually did install SHELL. Maybe it's all so <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/odd-584820" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ODD">ODD</a> cause I have the Parental Guide set to ON??? I assume you don't want Win8 to start with the new Metro interface?<br/>There is a setting in Classic Shell to start at the traditional desktop. Metro is good if you have a touch-screen, which I assume you don't.<br/>Don't know anything about parental guides.All I would like is for everything to look like Win7. Nothing special. I am not too heavy of a user. Emails, kids <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/free-240724" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FREE">FREE</a> online games, etc. <br/><br/>I think I am going to turn off parental stuff. Then take another look.Quote from: MomNEEDShelp on November 24, 2013, 04:37:11 PM</p><blockquote>All I would like is for everything to look like Win7...</blockquote>Classic Shell does that.I'd personally suggest just getting used to Windows 8. About 45% of the interfacing is the same... It's really just some of the Metro menu stuff and a few of the settings that are awkward at first... But yeah... once you're used to it it's pretty nice.<br/><br/>That said, you can use ClassicShell as recommended, however I'm personally not really into off-brand stuff that modifies the OS... <em>personally</em>.<br/><br/>If you <strong><em>really</em></strong> want to revert to Win 7, you'd have to do it as Allan said... but you would need an OS disk and a key.</body></html> | |
