Yes - once installed and rolled back from Win 10 .... the option is there
Support for Win 7 - has another 4 years to go (extended)

If you roll back to Win 7, can you go back to Win 10 free of charge when they stop supporting Win 7?

Here are your downgrade rights

And to re-upgrade, simply reinstall !!

Had to rollback my w10 anniversary update, as the internet was very ropey afterward.
2 days of slow/quick/slow internet.
I saw a few reports that w10 can alter internet connections, so rolled back, and everything back to normal now...phew
Just got to hold back anniversary update for a while.

oh dear that doesn't sound good

Just came on here to say that my laptop updated automatically and now I can hardly use the internet it is that slow. I was hoping it was coincidence and its my internet playing up and nothing to do with the update, but it sounds like it could be caused by the update

I will give it a few days but how do I go back to W10 pre update if I need to?

Note you have 10 days to revert back after installing "anniversary".

thanks would you mind explaining how I go back?

And can i install it again at a later date? (once they have sorted the issues out)

Open the Windows 10 settings app
Select 'Updates & Security' and then 'Recovery' from the sub-menu
Click on 'Get Started' underneath the 'Go back to an earlier build' heading
Answer the feedback question with whichever reason is appropriate and click 'Next'
Cycle through the confirmations and alerts until the process begins
Wait for a bit and when finished you will be back to Windows 10 version 1511

I haven't had the Anniversary update yet but my Internet has been really slow at times, I thought it was just playing up but it seems others are having the same problems,

I suggest a new thread. Need more information... ISP name, ADSL or fibre, wired or wireless, measured speed, have you powered off/on the router etc etc
