The information shown here is incorrect, for two reasons.
First, if the PC came with an older Windows verion on it (i.e., Win7), the Win10 Upgrade is known to corrupt the Recovery information, making rolling back to Win7 impossible after that.
Second, if the PC came with Win10 preinstalled, the only Recovery information is for Win10, thus there is no way to rollback to Win7.
MS should fix this wording -- but to date, they have not done this.
