Windows 10: Questions concerning " go back to the previous version of windows"

Hey there. So last week i updated my windows's version from 1803 to 1909. I have seen degrated performance in games after that and want to go back to the previous version. What i've read on the internet is that i can go back to the previous version during a 10 day period after installing an update. 1) i think i download 1903 then went to 1909. So when i go back to the previous version, will it go to 1803 or 1903? 2) i am backing up my files just in case. When doing the recover there is a reminder that i'll have to reinstall some apps. Is there any way i can predict what apps i'll have to reinstall?

Windows keeps reverting back to previous version.

Hi Josh,

The issue with Windows 10 update reverting back to previous version could be due to corruption in Windows Update component files.

We would like to ask some information to better assist you with your concern:

• Which previous build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
• Did you get any error messages or error codes?

We suggest that you try to run
Windows update troubleshooter and check if it works.

Keep us posted.

 

reverting to previous build/version

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I would appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down the issue.

• When the computer did froze? Is it when you tried to roll back?
• Did you receive any error message?

I suggest you to remove all the external devices plugged in to the computer and check if it helps to resolve the issue. If the issue persists, please restart the computer and check whether it rolled back or not. If it loads Windows 10,
I suggest you to download the latest ISO of Windows 10 and perform automatic repair.

Download Windows 10

Steps to perform repair:

a) Insert the installation DVD or USB
and boot Windows 8 from it.

b) In the ‘Windows setup’ page select the language to install’, ‘Time and currency format’ and the ‘keyboard or input method’ and click on ‘next’.

c) Click on ‘Repair your computer’ and select ‘Troubleshoot’.

d) Click on ‘Advanced options’ and select ‘Automatic Repair’ and select the operating system.


If you really would like to rollback, I suggest you to refer the below article on How to go back to the previous operating system (Windows 7/8.1) from Windows 10.

Windows stuck on previous restoring loop

Hi Mandy,

When an update to a newer version of Windows 10 is not successfully installed the device will automatically rollback to the previous version. If the device is stuck in a loop of restoring the previous version of Windows, this could be caused by system files
that got corrupted. For us to resolve your concern, kindly answer the questions below:

• Were there any other changes made prior to the issue occurring?
• Were there any error messages that showed up when you saw the restore loop?
• What troubleshooting steps have you completed?

We look forward to your response to our queries.
