unless you installed windows 8 to its own partition on your drive you will not be running your old version of win7 as when installing win8 it deleted your old os.the files you refer to as windows old are saved files from your old install,just not the os files.if you want to get rid of win8 and go back to 7 i suggest you back up everything on your drive and do a clean install of win7.

Oh buddy you're late! you must first repartition a drive so you can install windows 8 in it.. Some programs may work on windows 8 by locating C:\Windows.old\Program Files .. you may try them to run as administrator..
