    Swapping to an older version of windows

    Is there still an official way to drop back to an older version of windows, I honestly don't mind using a 3rd party way. If possible, can you list step by step instructions or a link to an easy to use website. Thanks.

    How can I get older Windows drivers?

    Sometimes a Windows update installs a new “buggy” driver for a device. So one of the steps I may try (after trying the typical steps, some of them listed below)…is to try installing an older version of the Microsoft driver.


    I’d try what I said after the typical: downloading the driver from the manufacturer or reinstalling the driver or rolling it back or removing the update or restoring a restore point…

    So I’m thinking of the best way to get and install an older Microsoft driver, these ideas occur to me:

    - Boot your PC from an older Windows Installer and robocopy the driverstore folder to another drive (using the installer’s Command Prompt). Then boot Windows and use this copy of the driverstore folder to install the older driver from device manager.
    - ..or install the older Windows on another PC and copy the driverstore folder from there..

    Also: is there any other way to download older Microsoft drivers?

    I hope this doesn't sound crazy
    I’d welcome any opinions
