Windows 7 is nice and light, and for Minecraft I might recommend Alpha 1.1.2_01 because it's probably the most stable, but unfortunately it doesn't have Japanese. P.S. I want to recreate 2010 more, so if anyone has any apps or games from back then, please let me know.

Discussion Friendly reminder that you can upgrade newer versions of Windows to Windows 7

Edit: As some people have pointed out, this is not an "upgrade", this is a clean install without requiring a USB or DVD. If you do this, your system will be reinstalled, but you'll not lose your personal files. This process is safe, but I recommend doing a fully clean installation instead.

Just select custom install option instead of upgrade, then select your C drive. After installation, you can access your old files from C:\windows.old or C:\windows.old.000

If your PC has Windows 11 preinstalled then this probably won't work.

You will have to reinstall all of your apps and drivers after it's done. (have fun lmao)

Also, remember to disable secure boot and enable support for Legacy boot options before doing any of this.
