I've had the anniversary update AND latest cumulative update.0

As I now have this Anniversary update if I click 'Go back to an earlier build' will it take me to the previous Win 10 or right back to Win 7?0

Since, prior to Anniversary, you had a month to return but now - they only give you 10 days
If you are within 10 days of both - I have no idea
Try it and see !!0 -
So, apart from it being a different version number and a big file size - what difference will it make ( I have never used cortana or edge)
Answering my own question, sorry ...
I'm now on v1607
Using Classic Shell, the only differences I can see are ...
It put a shortcut to Edge, File Explorer and Store on my taskbar - easily removed.
It put 'onedrive' back into my start up folder - easily removed
The few shortcuts to MS Word documents that I have on my desktop, now have DOCX written on them instead of W, but the spreadsheet still has an X as before.
Can't see any other differences currently .....
