I am currently on windows 10 and want to downgrade to 7 i have everything i need but it can't do the downgrade without loosing everything. I have the Windows 7 ISO on a USB but as soon as i start installing it, it just says remove the Operating system disk restart the computer then insert the operating system disk and continue but i can't figure out how to do it. Has anyone got a tutorial or something?

So you don't mind loosing all your stuff as this will happen unless you back it up on a large USB or external hard drive.
If you plug in the USB and restart your computer on the short menu that pops up it should say something like "Press F5 to select boot drive". You press the key and then select the USB and it will boot into the installer.
