Hello joleekar,


The only way to revert your Operating System after upgrading to macOS Catalina is by restoring from a Time Machine Backup. If you have a Time Machine backup, you can go through the steps of erasing the computer and restoring your data using Recovery (Command-R) or Internet Recovery Mode (Command-Option-R).
