Document how to downgrade Ollama on Windows - #46
Merged
Conversation
The troubleshooting doc told users to "downgrade to 0.12.x" but not how. Add a section covering winget --version (with the catalog-pruning and won't-downgrade-over-newer caveats), the GitHub-release OllamaSetup.exe fallback, and a macOS/Linux note.
