  1. Is it possible to downgrade the Windows 10 magnifier tool?


    I'm running Windows 2004 but I hate the way the magnify.exe tool works here. Seems like they integrated it into the new settings and generally made it UWP-like. I don't like that because it interferes with some stuff I used to use the old magnifier with and it interrupts my workflow. Is there any way to downgrade the magnifier, or do I have to straight up downgrade Windows and forever stay on years-old version of Windows 10?
