  • Search the site for downgrading from Win8 to 7. There have been a couple of threads already, so this would probably end up being closed as a dupe. Short answer - no, it's not possible and you'd need to format and reinstall. Edit: And... now you possibly cannot delete because someone posted an answer.

  • @ZainShah120 - You cannot revert back to Windows 7 unless you made a backup of your hdd before you did so.

    I am voting to close because a simple search would have lead you here, or here, or even here. As for the sarcasm, knock yourself out with more cracks if you wish.

No, it's not possible. You'll need to format your hard drive and reinstall Windows 7.
