Options

  • AYes
  • BNo

Explanation

When you upgrade from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10, Windows preserves the previous installation under a Windows.old folder for up to 10 days (in older Windows 10 versions) or 30 days (in newer builds). Within that window, you can roll back via Windows Recovery Environment (Windows RE) > Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Go back to the previous version. Since the upgrade occurred only two days ago, the rollback window is still open, so using Windows RE with Advanced options will successfully downgrade the computer back to Windows 8.1. This solution does meet the goal.
