A few days back, Microsoft released Windows 10 Technical Preview
to the public for testing purpose. In order to remove general
annoyances and bugs, Microsoft is offering us these preview versions. If
you’ve already installed Windows 10 on your system, and you’re facing
some issues in running your system smoothly, then this post is for you,
since it will tell you how to remove or uninstall Windows 10 Technical Preview Updates.
Since you’ve installed this version either by upgrading the system or in a multi-boot environment, the earlier existing stable copy might have been disturbed. Personally I found my own laptop flashing weirdly during booting, after installing the preview, especially the new updates. I made it dual boot with Windows 8.1, and it seems like the preview has already disturbed the stable copy. Well, if you too are facing issues on your machine after installing preview updates, you can remove them using the following methods:
Once you have uninstalled this update, reboot your computer and you’ll have your old stable copy of Windows edition.
1. Start the system and you’ll get Choose an operating system screen. Select the Change defaults or choose other options.
2. Next, from the Choose an option screen, pick Troubleshoot.
3. Finally, in the Troubleshoot screen, you’ll see an option Uninstall Preview updates and get rid of
Windows 10 beta version on your system.
Apart from these options, some people prefer virtualization to test beta versions which is a very good practice. If you’ve installed Windows 10 TP using a virtualization software, then there should be no problem or disturbance on stable version you’re running.
