  1. Selecting "Get Started" on "Go back to Windows 8.1" button not working


    So Windows 10 gave me a pretty bad experience, And i decided to go back to my old version.I followed instructions, Found myself at "Go back to Windows 8.1" Pressed "Get started", But nothing happened.All it did was make my cursor load a little, before reverting back to normal.I even tried spamming the button, But it just crashed Settings.Windows old file is also still in my c driveWhat does this mean and what do i do?

    :)

    Unlocked Realtek HD Audio Drivers Windows 7 & 8 (With Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive)

    DTS supported natively by Windows 8/8.1 and it should work on windows 10 too just DDL require to unlock your driver .

  4. Selecting "Get Started" on "Go back to Windows 8.1" button not working

    Start Button displaying but not working


    The start button was working until there was a forced reboot (power failure). Then left click (normal click) over the start button does absolutely nothing. Right click brings up a menu but "programs" and also "settings" are missing and not included on this list. Search or Task View buttons do not work either with "normal" click. Does anyone have any suggestion or fixes?
    Thank you in advance *Huh
