The windows insider Dev debacle

So I had my computer set so I would receive windows insider dev updates, i’ve tried multiple things to turn it off, but the only way you can actually do it is to completely wipe the system, and I mean completely. 

Microsoft needs to make away to turn off the Dev updates or even roll them over to other updates

 

(update: I have done several attempts to clean install and it hasn’t worked. I’m gonna have to take my computer to the computer store to get the hard drive replaced.)

 

thanks Microsoft🤬

    Yes, this is a problem for the Dev. and Canary channels, but since these are non-productive versions - the solution is only a clean install of Windows.

    I remember that in the spring of 2023. Beta and Dev. had the same build, then you can downgrade to Beta, but that's rather 

    just this one case.

      Deleted I did a clean install and it’s still stuck on the dev channel. I’m going to have to remove my hard drive and put a whole new one in at this point
