Hi, i am wondering if i "downgrade" from windows 11 to windows 10 will i still have my windows license and perhaps have any hardware issue. I hated the windows 11 quite much, too much memory usage

Hi:

 

Your W11 product key will work to activate W10, but you probably won't find any W10 drivers for some of the major devices (audio, touchpad) so I recommend you get used to W11.

 

You're better off installing more memory.
