One of the important features given to users who have installed Windows 10 was able to return to the previous operating system if you did not like it.
For 30 days I was given the possibility of a few minutes the previous version of Windows be restored and the Windows 10 removed. But Microsoft has now amended this possibility, from 30 days to 10.
This feature has been used by many to test Windows 10, making sure they can reverse at any time if they stayed not satisfied or if they had problems. Housed in a Windows.old folder was the previous version and all the user settings.
But Microsoft evaluated best this option and reduced the retention time of this copy going to give users only 10 days to decide if they really wanted to keep the new version. It was a change that was not communicated to users and the change has happened.
Based on our user research, we noticed most users who choose to go back to a previous version of Windows it Within the first Several days. The such, we changed the setting to 10 days to free storage space used by previous copies.
According to Microsoft this change allows gain disk space earlier, can this gain be between 3 and 5GB. Microsoft assessment realized that this copy was only used in the early days after the migration.
the change was applied with the arrival of the Anniversary update, which means that for many will no longer be possible to reverse this update? within days.
being an upgrade within Windows 10 is unlikely users want to revert to the previous version, not having so much impact. It is, however, important space gain that happen sooner, ensuring the machines of users with smaller more disk space capacity in a shorter amount of time.
This is a further shift performed silently by Microsoft and probably will bring criticism from users. It has a small impact as it came with the Anniversary Update and guarantees much earlier disk space than the previous version of Windows was to occupy.
