I have acer aspire 315-44p and i want to downgrade to windows 10 because it works smoothly in this module. Do there any downsides other than driver capability because in my friends laptop (models are the same) all drivers works fine. And do warranty expires if i downgrade to windows 10

    While your friend's laptop works fine with Windows 10, there is no guarantee that all drivers will function perfectly on your specific device. Certain features may not work as intended, especially if your hardware was designed with Windows 11 in mind. Pre-installed software or features optimized for Windows 11 might not work on Windows 10.

    Downgrading to Windows 10 from Windows 11 could lead to a loss of features and potential compatibility issues with newer software or hardware, and Windows 10 will no longer receive security updates after October 2025.
    Here's a more detailed look at the potential downsides:
    Loss of Windows 11 Features:
    You'll be losing features and improvements introduced in Windows 11, such as the redesigned user interface, enhanced performance, and new multitasking tools.
    End of Security Updates:
    Windows 10's support ends in October 2025, meaning you'll no longer receive security updates after that date, leaving your system vulnerable.
    Potential Compatibility Issues:
    Some software or hardware might not be fully compatible with Windows 10, leading to glitches or malfunctions.
    Clean Install Required:
    Downgrading typically involves a clean install of Windows 10, which means you'll need to back up your data and reinstall all your applications.
    Warranty and Support:
    A clean install might void your warranty or disqualify you from manufacturer's technical support.
    Pre-installed Software Removal:
    You might lose pre-installed software or apps that came with your device, such as manufacturer-specific utilities.
    Possible Driver Issues:
    There is a possibility that you may encounter driver errors or other minor problems while running certain programs.

    Hi, you should not downgrade a Windows11 laptop, drivers will be Microsoft W10 that may not be fully compatible, and you won't get W10 updates. Microsoft will stop supporting W10 after 5 months so you will have to roll back again to Windows11 in August 2025.
