Hello everyone, I need big help. Emergency help. Basically, I was trying to upgrade 7 to 10, when I upgraded to 10, I didn't do it with media tool creation, I just went to setup.exe on my USB stick, installed it, and now I can't go back to Windows 7. I have the Windows.old folder, but I for some reason can not revert in Windows Settings. Is this revertable? If not, maybe can I drag and drop the windows.old folders into windows? Thank you.

guess the OP did either forgot to choose the option of keeping existing user files & apps during setup or have waited too long to rollback (have up to 10 days to downgrade from Win10 to Win7 after the upgrade; after that Win10 quietly removes some files that allow the rollback)
