Recently, I received three laptops from my family members for installing Windows.
In one laptop, Windows 10 is installed with one volume i.e. C: and with data (like files, images, video, etc). And C: is GPT partition style.
In second laptop, there is one volume i.e. C: with data (like files, images, video, etc). C: is GPT partition style. And the error message on screen is “Operating System not found”. And
In third laptop, there are three volumes (C:, D: and E:) with GPT partition style. Data (like files, images, video, etc) are in both volumes (D: and E:). And the error message on screen is “Operating System not found”.
I have to install Windows 7 in all three laptops without losing data.
I have two bootable USB sticks created by Rufus. One is with MBR Partition scheme for BIOS or UEFI. And another is GPT partition scheme for UEFI. I am not able install Windows with any sticks.
I have gone through some web links but not useful.
Irrespective of manufacturer and modal number, how to install Windows in all three laptops?

"I have to install Windows 7 in all three laptops without losing data." - Mount the HDD to a fourth computer, backup your data, because there is no way to downgrade to Windows 7 without risking your data on the system partition.
