In short, I dislike Windows 11 and want to revert to Windows 10. I wasn’t installing Windows 11 within the 10-day window, but I was wondering if upgrading from Windows 10 during installation would simply switch the OS without losing any files. There’s an attached image for you.

For a downgrade, you must reinstall from the beginning.

C2dan88 is accurate. You can only upgrade your Windows version, not downgrade it. If you're unsure or disagree, proceed and test it. The choice exists since the alternative is setting up a USB drive with Windows for another system (often another one). Most users don’t downgrade their OS.

It wasn't about whether I agree with you—it was just about using the available option. Thank you for clarifying what the feature does; it was confusing. I miss things like having files on the taskbar and file explorer history. Overall, Windows 11 has made my workflow less efficient.

It's hard to place files on the Windows taskbar without some workarounds. The Start Menu highlights recent items in the "Recommended" area, letting you resume from where you stopped easily. No hassle searching through folders needed. File Explorer stayed similar to Windows 10, and you can set it to open your drives, just like before. You can also choose your preferred location, such as "Home" or OneDrive, whatever suits you best.
