Microsoft last week urged Windows 7 beta testers to return their machines to the Windows Vista operating system before upgrading to the impending release-candidate version of the new software.

Windows 7 Release Candidate, the next milestone for the operating system, is expected to be available sometime next month.

In a post on its Engineering Windows 7 blog, Microsoft asked users to revert to Vista to ensure that their upgrade process is “something real-world customers will experience.”

Microsoft said that bugs or other problems reported while upgrading from one prerelease build to another aren’t worth fixing. “We don’t always track them down and fix them because they take time away from bugs that would only manifest themselves during this one-time prerelease operation,” it said.
