You can get a system repair disk and it will go back to the original operating system you had before. Then transfer the files onto USB and then downgrade back to win 7 and plug in USB and put your documents back on.

This is why you need to back your system up before making changes to your system.
When you've gotten your system back like you want it, I urge you to get yourself an external hard drive and a good 3rd party backup program. You can set it up to do everything automagically at the time and frequency of your choice. 1 TB external hard drives are about $55 these days and a really good FREE backup program is the Easeus Todo Backup Free. That can save you a lot of time and frustration the next time something like this happens. Sooner or later it happens to all computers for one reason or another.
Good luck.

And again, specifically, what instructions did you use? Where did you obtain these instructions?
We're trying to help here, but without detailed answers to the questions we're only guessing.

And where (be specific with folder names, etc.) have you looked for your files?
Were these folders/files located in your user profile?
Are you logging in using the exact same user account after the rollback as before?

Backup, backup; when will folks ever learn that backups are like spare tires. You don't need them most of the time, but when you do (and you WILL sooner or later), they're indispensable. The school of hard knocks is a great teacher, but it sure is a painful one for those who don't learn in advance. You need to make them always, but ESPECIALLY before making major system changes.

Then they should still be there. If not, you'll need that backup you took before making major changes to your system. Again, you DID make a backup before starting, yes?
