Why was no Automatic Restore to XP included?

Thats not what I mean, when upgrading from Win98SE to XP there was, as
I recall a backout to revert to Win98SE, I am wondering if it was
possible to have included a similar backout option in this beta and if
so why did MSFT not do so, was it for technical or other reasons.

It would have saved a lot of predictable trouble for those people who
cannot read instructions / warnings and incidently made it easier for
the responders in this NG to help people who did ill advised upgrades
to get back to XP.

I am not being critical its just a general interest question.

I must admit I do agree with you there. I can only assume that
something went wrong otherwise why would the installation bother to
create a windows.old file?
 
LOL, sorry mate. It's been one of those weeks.

Bit frustrating sometimes innit? I got three "upgraded" Vistas on my
workbench need re-installing with the original XP and guess how many
original CDs and Driver disks came with them. £35-00 / hour I am not
complaining but I hate re-installing OSs its soooo bloody boooooring.

The owners will be even more upset when they get the bill.

Never mind eh!
