Revert8Plus is one of those tools loved by those of us who constantly test software and “mess around” with computers, because it allows you to transform the installed operating system with a simple command from Windows 10/11/8 to another previous operating system. Windows 7 or Vista.

How Revert8Plus works

It couldn’t be easier to use, as it is a simple third-party script that is activated with a single command from the advanced Windows console, Powershell, in a few steps:

• Press the keyboard shortcuts ‘Windows + R’ to open the Run application.
• He writes powershell irm revert8plus.gitlab.io | ex and press enter.

The script will activate and start a semi-automatic update. The developer stated the degree of compatibility with different versions of Windows:

• Windows 8 – Fully Compatible – 100%
• Windows 8.1 – Fully Compatible – 100%
• Windows 10 1809 – Fully Compatible – 100%
• Windows 10 21H2 – Fully Compatible – 97%
• Windows 10 22H2 – Fully Compatible – 97%
• Windows 11 21H2 – Compatible – 80%
• Windows 11 22H2 – Compatible – 80%
• Windows 11 23H2 – Compatible – 80%

The script restores the old Start screen, login dialog, and security options, as well as the Windows 7 taskbar, Start menu, and older games. Other visual elements such as the command bar, navigation buttons, address and search bar, clock or web interface will also be renewed, along with other functions including the Windows Media Center browser.

If you want to transform the system to Windows Vista, you need to use some other commands that the developer quotes in the video he posted with the whole process, such as the main topic with the command ViewToggle

If you start the transformation from Windows 11, you will need to disable Windows Defender Antivirus. Instructions are also included in the video comments for frequently asked questions such as authenticating with Microsoft accounts. To return to the original operating system, simply uninstall any programs related to the theme that this script installs.

Of course, it is recommended to back up your data before running this Revert8Plus, which should not be used on production machines under any circumstances. Another tool to try for those who like this type of visual “makeover” (as well as some other functional ones) and believe that Windows 7 was not surpassed by what came later.
