Does W7 support the partition layout from W8 onwards? Which means I can just downgrade real quick, activate and then upgrade without having to wipe the drive? Seeing as I can setup my stuff in 30min or so. I.e I moved to a different board with everything else intact (SW/HW wise).
I guess, you can downgrade. The only thing Windows 7 doesn't supported is Secure Boot. However, what does that "and then upgrade" thing mean. ^^
