Uninstall Windows 10


How can I uninstall Windows 10? I am having a ton of problems and no longer want to deal with them. I cannot go to the Control Panel and say Uninstall the program since the Control Panel Uninstall Programs shows only very small % of the programs I have on the computer. Just one of the many problems. I do have a Windows 8.1 flash drive from Dell so I can reinstall Windows 8.1. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

You can Go Back to your previous operating system PROVIDED you meet the following conditions :

1. You installed Win 10 less than 30days ago.
2. You have not deleted the windows.old from your C drive.

If you meet the above requirements, you can revert back to your previous Windows by .................

Windows 10 - Go Back to Previous Windows

Left click at Start button > left side, click Settings > click Update & Security > left side, click Recovery > right side, under Go Back to Windows 8.1, click the Get Started button.
That will begin reverting back to Win 8.1. Just follow the prompts from then on.

If you cannot meet the requirements mentioned above, then you will need to use your Dell's Win 8.1 flash drive and do aClean Install.

Before you begin reverting back to Win 8.1, would you mind describe a few of your problems in Win 10 ?

Also, would you care to do a CLEAN INSTALL of Windows 10 ?
Clean Install will not allowed you to keep anything.
You start fresh. No carry-over baggage.

Boot the computer from that flash drive. It should give you the option to erase the hard drive and start factory fresh.

A little cruel, maybe.

This doesn't prepare Tony0212 for the fact that every file, setting, and installed program will be lost if 8.1 is installed this way.

Really? You don't think the words "erase the hard drive and start factory fresh" could mean anything else?

One of the reasons I agreed, but we/I tend to forget that a lot of computer users don't really yet know how it all works��

Really.

Recall that the OP tried to uninstall the operating system by using the Programs and Features control panel. Sometimes it's desirable to go into almost insulting detail to answer questions that the poster may not know to ask.
