Explanation

'Uninstall updates' in View Update History is designed to remove individual Windows Update packages-cumulative updates, security patches, and similar-not to roll back a full OS version upgrade. To revert from Windows 10 back to Windows 8.1 after an in-place upgrade, the correct path is Settings > Update & Security > Recovery > 'Go back to Windows 8.1,' which is available for up to 30 days post-upgrade. Attempting to use 'Uninstall updates' for this purpose will not present the option to downgrade the OS version.
