📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses a user’s experience with installing the Windows 10 preview and subsequently restoring their files and programs using Acronis True Image. Initially, after a clean install, the user attempted to recover their data from a backup, but it resulted in reverting back to Windows 8.1 instead of Windows 10. The overall sentiment indicates that while Acronis proved effective at restoring data, the process unintentionally restored the previous OS, leading the user to return to Windows 8.1 instead of staying with Windows 10.

Just installed Windows 10 preview. I like it very nice indeed. I did a clean install so was left with no data or files except the new OS.
I then had the bright idea of using my Acronis True Image to recover my files and programs.
It was such a perfect recovery from a stored backup on another disk - I am now running 8.1 again :eek: :razz:
Not exactly what I had in mind and all my fault but.. Acronis does a perfect job of restoring files plus a lost or deleted OS :up:
