How to prepare for your upgrade to Windows 10
Create a recovery disk or drive with your current OS
You have a full month to test drive Windows 10, and if you don't like it, Microsoft will let you go back to your original OS before you upgrade. But what if you found an issue in the second month?
At this point, the only way to downgrade is to use your own Windows recovery discs to reinstall your old version of Windows.
If you own a newer system that didn't come with a recovery disc, you'll want to create your own recovery media, either on a DVD or USB stick. Some manufacturers ship machines with special backup and recovery software that allows you to create your own backup of the Windows install. If your system doesn't have any special software, you can use the Recovery Tool that ships with Windows.
The recovery media that you create will contain the Windows installation files along with any special drivers and preloaded third-party software that shipped with your machine.
