use stripped file to revert to stock from here:
http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/download.php?id=30565
Than you can upgrade to any other stock version you would like.

p.s. make sure you unrar/unzip this file first...

Of course you can, then you can't go back to dd-wrt with out hard work.

Now i have installed the STOCK FIRMWARE version (archer c7 v2), but i want to delete DD-WRT and return to the original tp-link firmware, i simply download the official file from the TP-LINK website and upload it in the section "Firmware Upload"??

I have this doubt, because on youtube there are many more complicated tutorials to return to the original TP-LINK firmware (for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKPZPSU0axk&t=836s)

Sorry guys, I just want to be sure before I do anything.

The newest version of TP-Link firmware may be locked to regional rules. DD-WRT may be installed on some types only: US - for USA, IL - for Israel and not locked for other countries. You may see this versions on FTP server with dd-wrt updates. If you flash locked version of FW from TP-Link, you may be locked.

If you have installed stock firmware, dd-wrt is already deleted.
