If you have exceeded the one month window, or if you did a clean install of Windows 10, then you can still downgrade. The downgrade procedure should take little more than 10 minutes. If you have recently upgraded from Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 to Windows 10, and would prefer to go back to the previous version of Windows, then you can easily go back – provided you make the move within one month of upgrading to Windows 10.
