Hi Deane

Uninstalling Windows 8 involves using repair discs and CMD line mode, however if you get it wrong, than your system will become inoperative and unrecoverable, hence I say it’s not for the faint hearted and needs a computer tech to be on the safe side.

Microsoft will only support their own un-install features (Even though their developers know how to un-install it) as otherwise they would open themselves up to dealing with every Tom, Dick and Harry that think they know about computers, but in actual fact don’t.

Hope this clears up the confusion
