Do not want Win8.1 preview version, can you uninstall?

  
        On June 29th, Microsoft released the Win8.1 preview download at the Build2013 conference. After experiencing the Windows 8.1 preview for nearly 60 hours, how do you feel about Microsoft's new work of "compromise" and "grounding"? Of course, some users are planning to say goodbye to the Win8.1 preview after the fresh energy is over; can you uninstall it?
Microsoft officially replied, "Do not support uninstalling this preview version. However, you can restore your entire system to the factory state."

Can I uninstall Windows 8.1 PrevIEw?

Uninstalling this preview version is not supported. However, you can restore your entire system to its factory state.
• If your computer comes with Windows 8, you can use a computer refresh to restore it to Windows 8. Your personal files will not be affected, however, applications that are not included with your computer will need to be reinstalled, and the Windows 8 Store may no longer provide the applications you installed when you used the preview version.
• If you are running Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7, you cannot uninstall this preview version. To revert to the previous operating system, you will need to reinstall from the recovery or installation media (usually DVD media) that came with your computer. If you don't have recovery media, you can use the computer manufacturer's software to create recovery media from your computer's recovery partition before updating. After installing Windows 8.1 PrevIEw, you will not be able to recover from the previous Windows version by using the recovery partition on your computer.
Warning: If you are currently using Windows RT, you will not be able to uninstall Windows RT 8.1 PrevIEw. When the final version is released, you will be able to upgrade to the final version of Windows RT 8.1.
If you are running Windows 8, and you are using this preview version of the ISO installation, you will not be able to uninstall it. You will need to reinstall Windows 8 using the recovery or installation media that came with your computer.
