Hallo Steve, I have used Win 7 pro when I updated to Win 10
I know there was an option to return to Win 7 but only in the first Month.

Win 7 pro was pre installatien and I have no Disc.

but thanks for your help.

I use VLC with Windows 10 and have no more problems than I do running it on Windows 7. It's a bit of a geeky program but I like it because it allows you to take screen shots of Blu-ray discs and capture streaming video.

I guess I didn't express myself well. My computer came with Windows 8.1 installed. I took the offer to upgrade to Windows 10. I also only had the one month option to go back to 8.1, and I didn't take it. Then I started to have some minor but annoying problems. In the end the only choice I had was a complete reformat. If by "pre-installation" you mean the computer came with Windows 7, then what I said holds true. A reformat will return the computer to exactly the way it was when you got it, including the original OS. I also have no disc, but I'm back where I started, with 8.1.
