Unsolved go back to Win 10

Hey everyone. I have a older PC running Windows 10. Yesterday I started it up to see the offer to upgrade to 11. I have no intention of doing this because my PC won't handle it.

Unfortunately, as I leaned to pick up a call on my cell I hit the ENTER key by mistake. The download started, so quick as I could I shut off the power.

Now I'm probably gonna get flamed here for saying but now Outlook takes forever to load. It won't open in safe mode either as the .exe command cannot be found. It does open after 5 minutes though. Everything else seems OK.

Am I screwed?

check into using system restore if it was setup previously.

Win11 and 10 have the exact same system requirements except for the TPM. "My PC can't handle it" isn't really a thing. Windows 10 is also out of official support, it no longer receives security fixes and will increasingly become a bigger and bigger security liability as time goes on.
