    What programs will I have to reinstall to revert back to Windows 7?


    When I started the recovery process to revert back to Windows 7, I saw a warning that I would need to reinstall some programs after reverting. I aborted at that point. Does anyone know what programs I would need to reinstall?

    Hello Cocatfan, and welcome to Ten Forums. :)

    Basically, anything you changed or installed after upgrading will be removed. When you go back, it goes back to the same state your Windows 7 was at before upgrading to Windows 10.
