Is my windows 10 only laptop allowed to run Windows 8.1 or Windows 7? I tried with windows 8.1, but it didn't work

You see, windows 10 is becoming worse and worse.

Disabled cortana, she still works in the background

Plus, My windows 10 gaming experience is bad for a game, It is a weird game called ROBLOX I was trying it out the other day and this one game "Jailbreak" lags a bit.

My specs and model:

Model: Lenovo G50-80

Processor: intel i7 5500u

Installed RAM: 4 Gigabytes

System type: 64 Bytes

Please tell me! I'm looking forward to Windows 8.1!

first of all if your laptop original comes with windows 10 usually there are no drivers from the manufacturer for 7 and 8.1 so u might be stuck with 10.also u need more ram.4gb wont cut it nowdays if u are loooking for a smooth experience.windows process will chuck that 4gb in no time.

Yeah 4GB RAM today is so 2008-2010. Take a quick walk back in history on mainstream RAM requirements for acceptable system performance:

2000 - 256MB
2002 - 512MB
2004 - 2GB
2008 - 4GB
2012 - 8GB
2016 - 16GB
2020 - 32GB (?)

There's a pattern there.
